Sheikha Asma Al Thani

... that Asma Al Thani, who directs the Qatar Olympic Committee's communications, has climbed the 8th highest mountain and skiied to the North Pole? Source: covers the job and the arctic trip but not the climb
- Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Daviesia devito
- Comment: I think the image shows this is a woman in a hijab so useful to include. If you see an error then please fix it.

Created by Lajmmoore (talk). Nominated by Victuallers at 21:12, 7 January 2022 (UTC).[reply]

Article is rather brief but is new, long enough, fully cited and plagiarism free. Hook is short, to the point, cited in the article and interesting. Image is appropriately licenced and QPQ has been completed. All verified. Gatoclass (talk) 04:34, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Victuallers: Would you consider this one for IWD 8th March? The hijab photo is nice. DrThneed (talk) 02:17, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- It would be my (and I suspect @Lajmmoore:'s) pleasure and and an honour for Women in Red. Thank you for thinking about IWD. Victuallers (talk) 08:24, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - Absolutely! That would be brilliant! Lajmmoore (talk) 11:17, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - Thanks! Have moved into the SOHA at the bottom of the page. Do keep an eye out for others for IWD! DrThneed (talk) 23:40, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Victuallers Thanks for for the DYK nomination - you got there before me - I owe you one! Lajmmoore (talk) 21:28, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lajmmoore You are welcome. I was worried that I was hacking at the article to rid it of the Everest misunderstanding (easy mistake) and it may have appeared to observers as an attack. I relied on our friendship - luckily it has been picked up by a DYK veteran (the longest time-served I think) and pushed though. Jealous as I have another (South Pole) adventurer in the queue. Great work - well done. Victuallers (talk) 10:45, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
