No evidence that this is an official title, single source in article doesn't use, it no reliable sources for it's existence, never used in official communications. Being married to a ruler or head of state does not automatically create this position. Heliotom (talk) 06:07, 28 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep I'm came up with atleast two RS [1] [2] which demostrate that title indeed exists and is under usage. The Ruler of Dubai is the Prime Minister the UAE so I assume First Lady of Dubai is equivalent to First Lady of the UAE. --Saqib (talk) 12:08, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Your second source albawaba.com is a synidcated Daily mail article, which is a prohibited source as it's notoriously inaccurate.
Assuming never got anyone anywhere on wikipedia. The ruler of Dubai is the prime minister of the UAE, but the President is the ruler of Abu Dhabi. The title is not used domestically, or on any reliable sources that I can find, everything on google is circular feedback from wikipedia or pinterest. Being the wife of a ruler does not automatically create the title First lady.
In addition, Sheikh Mohammed has two wives, both of whom are given this title in the exceedingly poor sources that do exist for its existence.Heliotom (talk) 12:28, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The title is for sure is being used domestically. For example, Al Bayan is a Dubai-government run newspaper and is major one and they in one of their news story mentioned Sheikha Hind Al Maktoum as the "First Lady of Dubai", but unfortunately it is in Arabic language and you may need to G Translate it. --Saqib (talk) 12:39, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That appears to be the terminology used for the award, not a reflection of an official title. And again, one source from 12 years ago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Heliotom (talkcontribs) 12:48, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
