Comment. It is an understated article about a person from royal family. The person may in fact be fairly notable. Or the topic could be redirected to some appropriate section in one of the articles about about the family (House of Limburg-Stirum, and List of Dukes of Limburg). I see it is mentioned in the "House" article that he is "a claimant to the headship of the House, lives in Finland." An alternative to deletion would be to redirect to an anchor which could be placed there. Also, searching is not easy. I dropped the "Count" from the suggested search and find my way to one (Swedish-language?) article here, which is mentioning the subject being in transit at time of World War II breaking out, and mentioning after the war. But the whole string "Franz von Limburg Stirum" might not be usual. German, Swedish and/or Finnish language editor(s)' perspective is needed. --Doncram (talk) 04:49, 24 September 2018 (UTC) --13:51, 24 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I found two Finnish articles which meantion him by name in passing by saying he owns a historic steel mill in Kärkelä, Lohja. [1] Doesn't appear too notable. --Pudeo (talk) 11:34, 25 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
