I tried, first tagging this for cleanup. Then, as I looked more closely, I found I could not spot how it passed WP:CORP. The referencing is poor. Interviews with the principal, passing mentions, a dead link. Islamic compliant swimwear is an excellent topic, but this is a poor attempt by an apparently undisclosed paid (or at least COI) editor to use AFC to conceal an advert behind a welter of references.

  • Delete Per the reasonable analysis of the sources by the nominator. Although sources do exist on this, they seem to be trivial passing mentions and the article was created/edited by a COI user. So, I see nothing about it to justify an article. --Adamant1 (talk) 19:41, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
