After a fair amount of digging, the best I can say about this article (created as an account's only edits in 2007, and only touched since to clear up confusion with Tranbjerg J) is that it's not an outright hoax. The one linked reference ( archive) gives no coördinates, but gives the JOG number NN32-02, and Gazetteer of Denmark and the Faroe Islands: Names Approved by the United States Board on Geographic Names does record a Tranbjerg with that JOG number near Årre. However, Danish Wikipedia's only reference to this Tranbjerg is as bebyggelse, ejerlav—roughly meaning "built-up area and land lots", I think?—and Google yields only one relevant result that I can find: about the Tranbjerg Østergaard farm, at almost the exact coördinates given in the gazetteer. So I think this is one of those cases where one database got mixed up about whether something was a settlement or not, and that error propagated a little bit. But, whatever is in Tranbjerg, farmhouse or village, there does not seem to be enough verifiable information to support a Wikipedia article. -- Tamzin cetacean needed (she|they|xe) 00:36, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

- delete This strongly resembles the kind of GNIS-derived problem article we've been weeding out for the past several years. We have held things that come up as "locales" non-notable unless there is a great deal of WP:GNG talk about them, and this just does not seem to fit that. Mangoe ( talk) 03:38, 28 November 2022 (UTC)
