Fails the GNG. Excluding non-independent sources what you're left with is merely two citaitons: one leads to a press release, the other one is what looks like a PR puff piece, starting with "Middle East’s most celebrated and coveted black model". Could not find any other coverage of note apart from photograph captions, a promotional African tabloid publicity push from about October 2019, and the usual social media posts.

Delete as I could not find enough sources to prove a significant amount of coverage on this person in third-party, reliable sources. Aoba47 (talk) 20:14, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I wish we could keep Ms. Ayan on Wikipedia, but it might be WP:TOOSOON. After an extensive search - all I could find were articles already cited. Granted, those are from reliable secondary sources in Kenya, Nigeria and Dubai - major publications. However, they are promotional-style pieces that almost appear like sponsored content with a by-line. Missvain (talk) 20:49, 15 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, they quite clearly read as promotional pieces spat out by a PR team. PK650 (talk) 03:01, 16 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Will have to conclude that it is too soon. She can be easily found in reliable media sources from various countries, but as the folks noted above, all the articles certainly appear to be PR puff pieces. If her career progresses into reliable and significant media coverage, a WP article may be more viable in the not-too-distant future. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 15:41, 16 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete none of these are truly RS, several are spam sites and I can find no other coverage. Praxidicae (talk) 15:49, 21 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
