Jomana Alrashid
... that media executive Jomana Alrashid became the first Saudi named to the Time 100 Next list?

Jishara (talk) 15:55, 17 July 2026 (UTC).
The claim of being the first Saudi in Time 100 list is wrong as the potential first may be Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman in [2018]. Please provide an alternative DYK or change it to Time 100 Next, which is what your source is indicating. - ABehjat (talk) 21:07, 17 July 2026 (UTC)
- @ABehjat: updated. Let me know if there's anything else that needs to be updated! Jishara (talk) 21:45, 17 July 2026 (UTC)
Thank you for making the change and doing the review. Article prose size is good. I see you've worked with your GAN reviewer to tighten and improve the article and validate the sources. The hook is reasonable and eyecatching and this is a valid submission given the recent GAN approval. Citations are good. Confirmed that you've reviewed another DYK, so you're all set! - ABehjat (talk) 22:22, 17 July 2026 (UTC)
Pulled per questionable standalone notability. The article has been nominated for redirection and the tick is pulled procedurally while that discussion takes place. Dclemens1971 (talk) 15:07, 20 July 2026 (UTC)
- @ABehjat: @Dclemens1971: Redirection nomination closed as keep. Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 12:49, 12 August 2026 (UTC)
- I asked the non-admin closer to reopen the discussion for an admin to evaluate. Dclemens1971 (talk) 10:18, 13 August 2026 (UTC)
Tick back on procedurally now that AFD is closed. Dclemens1971 (talk) 10:31, 16 August 2026 (UTC)

Pulled per the discussion at WT:DYK#Jomana Alrashid (nom). @Dclemens1971: Since the nomination was nominated as a new GA, should this go through GAR, or is that not needed? Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 14:04, 3 September 2026 (UTC)
- I'm not thrilled with the sourcing, but I'm not going to nominate it for GAR. The consensus at AfD was that she is a notable figure, and no one seemed concerned enough with the sourcing there. My comments at the AfD are there for anyone to review, and I stand by them, but with two relists there was no support for anything but keeping it. I will let others make decisions about the future of this nomination/article. Dclemens1971 (talk) 14:14, 3 September 2026 (UTC)
Re-review needed. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 09:32, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

Hook eligibility:
- Cited:

- Interesting:

- Other problems:
- Hook is not started in the article; while it states that the subject of the article was listed in the Time 100 in 2025, it does not state om the article that the subject was the first Saudi Arabian person on the Time 100. Moreover, in another earlier statement made by @ABehjat: the hook does not appear to be in the article. Please provide another hook.
| QPQ: Done. |
Overall:
Article elevated to GA on 17 July 2026, and nominated to DYK on the same date. At time of the nomination, the article had 3,508 characters. It appears to be properly sourced, with good faith given for sources other than English. While EarWig gives this a 14.5% it rates it as plagiarism unlikely. No words to watch found, appears to be neutral. There remains issues with the hook provided; while a source says something about the subject being a first of something, it does not state it in the article itself.

- {yo|RightCowLeftCoast}} thanks for the review. how about one of these two:
- ALT1: ...that Jomana Alrashid, the CEO of the Saudi Research and Media Group, stated her appointment was part of a vision that "trickled down from the highest levels of government"?
- or
- ALT2: ...that Jomana Alrashid was named "an architect of the Middle East's shifting media landscape" by Time Magazine?

- @RightCowLeftCoast: fix ping. Also fixed Jishara's reply as it was breaking the formatting and readability of the nom. ミラP@Miraclepine 01:35, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
@Jishara: ALT1 & ALT2 both appear in the article and are both sourced to reliable sources. Therefore, I think this should pass, once you fix the format of your new ALTs.-RightCowLeftCoast (Moo) 16:16, 28 September 2026 (UTC)

@RightCowLeftCoast: sounds good. Could you let me know if there is anything else I need to do to fix the format? Jishara (please ping upon response) (talk) 18:08, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
- @Jishara: please also include the bold ALT labels ahead of your ALT1 & ALT2, so that what the one who posts the hook knows easier where to look. I will strike your initial ALT above.-RightCowLeftCoast (Moo) 18:14, 28 September 2026 (UTC)
