Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shahina Siddiqui
This unfortunately seems to be a case where Wikipedia notability rules almost force us into |systemic bias. Unless they get involved in terrorism, lay Muslim community leaders in western countries seem to get distinctly less significant coverage in reliable sources (or at least what Wikipedia consensus recognizes as such) than do comparable Jewish leaders or ones connected with major Christian denominations. In this case, Siddiqui gets a number of mentions as executive director of and spokesperson for the Islamic Social Services Association (Canada) - and as a founding member and former executive director of the Islamic Social Services Association as a whole (it also operates in the United States) - and a few for some publications apparently aimed primarily at Muslim women living in North America. A dedicated researcher might just be able to add to this to construct a genuine case for notability - though I currently can't. However, even if Siddiqui is not notable, Google searches suggest that the Islamic Social Services Association is - however, we don't have an article on the Association, so I am not in a position to suggest redirecting this article there
