This is nothing more than a genealogical record. The topic fails
WP:GNG and
WP:BASIC. There are no reliable sources independent of the subject that cover anything directly and indepth about this individual because they have done absolutely nothing notable. Being related to a public figure is not notable

- Keep - "Duchess Donata of Mecklenburg ..... is the senior remaining member of the House of Mecklenburg-Schwerin. Since there are no males left in the family" that should pretty much say all what is needed to be said; We have come very close to the end of a aprox. thousand year old family. Oleryhlolsson ( talk) 08:02, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
- This is not an argument for having an article about her. That much can be said in the article about the family itself. Also, Mecklenburg-Schwerin was only created in 1701. The rest of the House of Mecklenburg is very much extant. Surtsicna ( talk) 10:39, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep – I second your reasoning - JamesyWamesy ( talk) 01:13, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
- Keep this one because there is a significant coverage of the subject in German-language media. [1] She is an active public figure and has been the subject of articles in a variety of reputable German newspapers, national as well as regional, including Die Welt ( here), Ostsee-Zeitung ( here), Schweriner Volkszeitung ( here), etc. Unfortunately, nothing in the article suggests that she is notable as a landowner and heir of a vast art collection. One can be forgiven for thinking that the article is yet another genealogical entry. Surtsicna ( talk) 10:39, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
- Delete consists entirely of genealogy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.110.217.186 ( talk) 15:25, 15 August 2020 (UTC)
