Princess Antoinette of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld[edit]

The Princess who is the subject of this article is non-notable. Her only claim to fame is being the daughter of Franz Frederick Anton, Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld. (Note that not all of his children have articles.) Furthermore, it is unlikely anything can be added to fill out her barebones autobiography (vital stats on birth, death and marriage). Tocharianne

Comment: are there different rules for royalty and nobility? She's a member of a ducal family, not a royal one. (Apparently the term "Princess" was more commonly used in the German aristocracy than it is in England.) Tocharianne 02:42, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: This seems to be an instance of Prince#Generic use, partly explained by differences between English and German terminology. --Dhartung | Talk 05:09, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete is my inclination given she never ruled as a titular princess or duchess, only as the daughter or spouse of one, no matter how notable her close relatives (two jumps to Victoria, two to Leopold of Belgium, etc.) --Dhartung | Talk 05:09, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, doesn't seem to have been notable in her own right. --Duke of Duchess Street 03:17, 31 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
