House of Pigniol

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Appears not to meet the WP:GNG guideline. Hard to find any reliable sources to establish proper notability; this family produced no kings and seemingly no significant people in the politics of France, unlike, for example, the House of Plantagenet, which is clearly notable. I would suggest deletion, and if there are any individuals who are notable within this family, their inclusion in a House of Pigniol category instead of a separate article.

 * Delete - I see no indication that this family is notable as a group. Wikipedia is not a genealogy database. Agricolae (talk) 01:49, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete: No evidence proffered that this subject meets the GNG. As stated above, we're talking petty aristocracy with no evidence that anyone of particular note is a member -- and since notability is not inherited, an article for the family wouldn't be appropriate in any event.
