Doesn't seem to be notable, the only claim to fame is being a grandchild of a person, who was considered to the position of Lithuanian king, but never actually became one. Marcelus (talk) 22:24, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Numerous self-proclaimed pretenders have articles dedicated to them. Royals that never ruled anything also have articles dedicated to them, e.g. Iniga von Thurn und Taxis.--+JMJ+ (talk) 12:19, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I hope you know a bunch of non-notable modern day nobles have articles about them, and they never ruled anything in their lives. Also, his grandfather was officially elected as the King, whether you like it or not. If anything, this is more worth keeping than the other articles about people of noble/royal blood who are part of deposed dynasties. YT DomDaBomb20 (talk) 15:19, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wilhelm was elected, but this election was reversed after a few months by the same body. It was also never accepted by Germany, which controlled Lithuania at the time. His grandson never laid claim to the throne, nor did any major political party or group ever do so. Inigo is a completely private person. Marcelus (talk) 21:44, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Don't use the existence of another article to prove that this article should remain. See WP:WAX for more info. ''Flux55'' (talk) 15:50, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Just because other "self-proclaimed pretenders have articles dedicated to them" is not an argument to keep this specific article WP:ALLORNOTHING. And I would also be in favor of deleting Iniga von Thurn und Taxis for what it's worth.
As for his grandfather being elected king or not that doesn't make Inigo notable as notability is not inherited WP:INHERIT. D1551D3N7 (talk) 00:18, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Update - the Iniga von Thurn und Taxis article has been deleted for lack of notability for what it's worth. D1551D3N7 (talk) 02:35, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
