Line of succession to the former throne of Waldeck and Pyrmont

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This (semi-independent) principality has been defunct since 1918. This roughly unsourced article looks like unverifiable original research, including about the supposed royal status of living persons (WP:BLP). See also WP:NOTGENEALOGY. Line of succession is also available in parent article Principality of Waldeck and Pyrmont. Compare Articles for deletion/Line of succession to the former Austro-Hungarian throne for a similar case.

 * Delete per WP:DEL-REASON 6: Articles that cannot possibly be attributed to reliable sources, including neologisms, original theories and conclusions, and articles that are themselves hoaxes (but not articles describing notable hoaxes). It is impossible to attribute the current line of succession to this throne to WP:RELIABLE sources, because there is no current line of succession, because the Principality itself doesn't even exist anymore.

 * Delete. Detailed, unsourced, hypothetical succession lines that are 90% non-notable living people belong on royalty and genealogy forums, not in an encyclopedia. JoelleJay (talk) 23:17, 26 July 2020 (UTC)
