Branford Boase Award

I don't believe this is a notable award - it's pretty much used entirely in sources as PR for individual books (ie. cover awards) and I can't find any real meaningful coverage of the award itself. PRAXIDICAE🌈 20:43, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete, couldn't find any coverage, just minor press blurbs here and there. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 01:27, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. While undersourced, the article is clearly not nonsense or inaccurate or only of interest to a tiny number of people. The award is an objective assessment of excellence in an area of wide public interest. I do not see any value in deleting it. --- Robina Fox (talk) 14:59, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep. I've added more sourcing - the awards get listed in multiple media outlets such as Locus, The Bookseller, and The Guardian. I've also found some general coverage of the award as well. It's not the most major award, but it seems to have gained a decent amount of coverage. ReaderofthePack (formerly Tokyogirl79)  (｡◕‿◕｡)  18:33, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep. Notable enough for the Guardian to report on it. pburka (talk) 23:56, 2 July 2022 (UTC)
