Contested PROD. I cannot find any significant coverage of this person in reliable sources, or any other reason that he should meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for biographies. I note that he was named Arab Youth Media Forum’s 2011 Most Influential International Youth, but I am not sure this counts as a "well-known and significant award or honor" per the guideline's wording. — Mr. Stradivarius ♫ 19:38, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - a nice young princeling, but he hasn't done anything notable. In past AfDs, we have only kept royalty who are at least somewhat notable in themselves and for their own publicity. I don't see that here, but am willing to change my mind. The award is the sort of pat on the back given to royalty for their patronage. Bearian (talk) 21:00, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- I dont think that you can comment on the award at all or that that adds worth to the discussion because you don't know why he got the award. Furthermore there is significant coverage of Fahad Saud on outlets covering Awkward Black Girl which is becoming a very popular webseries and what I think is being called a 'reliable' source here might be very biased as his popularity is particular to a large cultural group(s) which may not be well represented by 'reliable' (mainstream) sources. He's an actor is a very popular show. He works with NATO. 165.124.204.170 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 17:20, 11 April 2012 (UTC).[reply]
- Fahad Saud, if he is the same person, did not have a major role on the web series The Mis-Adventures of Awkward Black Girl; he appeared in two episodes, according to both IMdB and The official website cast page. Therefore, he fails WP:NACTOR. Bearian (talk) 21:13, 11 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
