This article does not meet WP:BIO guidelines and has been tagged as lacking sources establishing notability for four years, this person is only noted for being a sister-in-law of Princess Caroline of Monaco. Smeat75 (talk) 07:20, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete unless somebody finds something to say about the person (i.e. about her, not who she is related to). —Kusma (t·c) 22:58, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Unlike a lot of the other royal articles that have been nominated, Princess Olga is not just in the line to pretender status, but is a British princess. I think that status makes one notable, seeing as the title is fairly rare, having 11 living holders according the British princess page. TonyBallioni (talk) 02:45, 3 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Looking deeper into it, I'm not entirely sure she is a British princess. She doesn't seem to fit the requirements as listed and sourced on the other page.  The page that the title is referenced to in this article also doesn't seem to mention her being a British princess, and my Google search didn't turn up any other sources.  If anyone could document that she was indeed a British princess, I would !vote keep, but for now, I am striking my !vote and am neutral. TonyBallioni (talk) 03:00, 3 December 2013 (UTC)
 * The members of the House of Hanover use the title "Prince/ss of Great Britain and Ireland" because they are descended in male line from King George III of the United Kingdom and the former custom was to recognize all such descendants as British princes and princesses. However, in 1917, King George V issued letters patent to restrict the title of prince/princess to fewer generations of descendants, which would have taken away the status of the Hanovers as British princes/princesses. The Hanovers, who lived in Germany, nevertheless continued to include "Prince/ss of Great Britain and Ireland" among their titles. So Princess Olga is not a British princess according to the British government; she's a British princess only according to the House of Hanover. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:56, 9 December 2013 (UTC)


 * Delete All sources I can find in both English and German spellings of her name only support minimal information in the article: name, relatives, titles claimed, etc. Not notable in her own right but simply for her family.  --Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 15:38, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
