Prince Moritz of Hesse

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Contested prod, not notable. PatGallacher (talk) 02:20, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

See the similar case of his relative Articles for deletion/Prince Philipp of Hesse (b. 1970), another contested prod which was eventually deleted. This is a 5-year-old child whose only claim to notability is that he is the grandson of the current pretender to the throne of Hesse, a mini-state which was annexed by Prussia in 1866.

Keep : Age notwithstanding, Moritz is second in line and a likely successor to the leadership of the House of Hesse, which was an important component of the Holy Roman Empire. I'm the first to admit this title in pretence business needs to be sorted out, but until then ... ''' Oh No! It's Faustus37! ''' it is what it is - speak at the tone 04:49, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the subject's father, Donatus, Hereditary Prince of Hesse. Most of what there is to say about Moritz so far is genealogical. As he grows up, it is plausible that he will be the subject of coverage in reliable sources regarding his role in the aristocracy. At that time, the article can be re-created. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:10, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
 * I can live with that.  Oh No! It's Faustus37!  it is what it is - speak at the tone 06:27, 7 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete. I can find no significant coverage from reliable secondary sources about this child. Rotten regard 02:08, 9 December 2012 (UTC)

Delete. Not notable. Unless theres a special rule that says everyone related to minor European royalty is automatically granted there own wiki entry. -- Phazakerley  (talk) 09:20, 13 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete: The mention in his father's page suffices. הסרפד (Hasirpad) [formerly Ratz...bo] 04:19, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
