Delete. What kind historical figure? What did she actually do? "She supported the activities of her husband" is the only assertion, and that is unreferenced and overly vague. The two references above by Dilek2 (one is just a copy of the article's external link) simply show that she existed, with no more than basic geneological information given. Sure, we give articles to nobodies if they are close in line of succession to a major throne, but 1) if she was close in line of succession to the Ottoman throne, it's not stated (and she was the youngest of several siblings), and 2) the Ottoman Sultanate expired before she did, anyway. There is a Emine Sultan Hotel, which I guess is named after her. It has ten rooms. No prejudice against re-creation if "support[ing] the activities of her husband" included presonally making a significant contribution to the struggle, providing references can be provided.

Delete This source is from Ancestry.com and may be a WP:SPS, but even if it is not then it only meets WP:RS by WP:ASF. Therefore meeting of WP:V is questionable. User:Herostratus questions this person's notability with good reasons. In addition to his reasons her father's page says she was from his fifth wife and not one of the ten children recognized by the imperial house. There is no indication that actions of her life have notability, and her being born to the leader of a major empire does not make her notable because of Wikipedia:NOTINHERITED.
