 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Weak keep: The article at the point of nomination has been very much a present-ist list of the publication's wares; I have begun adding some referenced material on its history. (Note too the Sunday Herald's headline description of it as "the venerable what's on guide".) I am wary that the Herald and BBC references might be considered as coverage triggered by announcements, hence the "weak" part of my "keep" opinion. (There is also the OBE award to the publisher for "services to the arts and culture", but that would fall under WP:NOTINHERITED.) AllyD (talk) 08:45, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Weak keep per AllyD's comments and article improvement. Still needs support, though. -The Gnome (talk) 17:49, 12 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep per AllyD. Mutt Lunker (talk) 10:35, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. As per comments above notability does seem to be shown, particularly following recent improvements to the article. Dunarc (talk) 20:48, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. Since the article was nominated a few references have been added, but the article is still in poor shape. There are several reasons why finding sources for this publication is difficult. Most newspapers have listings sections, some even have a section called "The List". Of the sources that a person might look to find coverage of The List, some are competing with this publication for a share of the audience. Drchriswilliams (talk) 12:56, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
