There is no indication of notability as whatsoever; the topic evidently fails WP:GNG and WP:BASIC. The subject was an obscure private individual who married and had children. Wikipedia is not here to serve as a genealogy database; see WP:NOTGENEALOGY policy. Surtsicna (talk) 11:58, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom, fails WP:GNG we have let this grow too large with articles on people who never even had titles let alone power connected with those titles.John Pack Lambert (talk) 18:08, 13 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per nom and the other comment above, the state of Prussia was abolished and Princesses of that state did not exist before this person was born.WP:NOTGENEALOGY Smeat75 (talk) 00:44, 14 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete: This is nothing more than a genealogical record. The topic fails WP:GNG and WP:BASIC. There are no reliable sources independent of the subject that cover anything directly and indepth about this individual because they have done absolutely nothing notable. Being related to a public figure is not notable WP:INVALIDBIO WP:NOTINHERITED. Wikipedia is WP:NOTGENEALOGY of non-notable members in royal families. // Timothy :: talk 05:22, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per WP:SIGCOV - her wedding was covered, she was born a princess, adopted by another, and she married well. I'm surprised this article hasn't been "adopted" like she was. Bearian (talk) 23:52, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Reply: I don't believe there are sources that address the subject directly and indepth. WP:ROUTINE coverage of normal life events such as birth, adoption, marriage does not provide evidence of notability. But if you could list the sources that address the subject (the person) directly and indepth (per WP:SIGCOV), such as what they have done or what they have participated in, which are not just mentions of the person because of their relation to another person (WP:NOTINHERITED), I will look and if they address the subject directly and indepth I will add the sources and information to the article and change my vote. // Timothy :: talk 02:09, 18 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
