There appear to be no reliable sources that discuss this subject. Notability isn't inherited, and subject doesn't seem to be noted for anything, aside from being a member of a family with one member who was very briefly emperor of Mexico, failing WP:Notability (people).Flyte35 (talk) 20:39, 11 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete--Wikipedia is not a repository for genealogy. Subject is not notable in his own right. Glendoremus (talk) 04:29, 19 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Wikipedia does not keep articles about the "royal line" of a monarchy which exists only on paper, because its holders ceased to be the actual monarchs of anything 150 years ago — someone like this does not get an automatic inclusion freebie just because he exists. Rather, he must pass WP:GNG to earn inclusion on the basis of sourceability — but the sole source present here is a family genealogy, which verifies that he exists but fails to demonstrate that his existence is something that an encyclopedia need concern itself with.

Merge/redirect to House of Iturbide. There are some Spanish language sources (e.g. [1]) that discuss him in the context of the exiled ruling dynasty. As its head, it would be a plausible search therm. ---- Patar knight - ^chat/_{contributions} 21:40, 25 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
