Tranby Croft (band)

I have been unable to find information in independent, reliable sources to demonstrate that this is a well-known band. The mention in the Book of Lists is less than one sentence. &mdash;Anne Delong (talk) 05:03, 25 June 2017 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. Nothing claimed in the article hands them an automatic presumption of notability in the absence of reliable source coverage about them in media — "mentioned in The Book of Lists" is not a notability claim at all! — and I can find no evidence of the media coverage needed to improve this article at all. Even on a ProQuest search for deep pregoogle media coverage, I get just two hits on their name, of which one is a WP:ROUTINE concert listing and the other is about the Tranby Croft affair, not the Tranby Croft band. So there's simply no locatable evidence that they pass any notability criteria at all. Bearcat (talk) 16:09, 28 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete as speculation and assertion by themselves are insufficient to demonstrate notability. &mdash; fortuna  velut luna  08:00, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
