No company, no film project. No film project, no write-ups.  And as with similar articles, it is expected that sources would write about the productions of a production company.  Per guideline: {{tq|"'A company, corporation, organization, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources. Such sources must be reliable, and independent of the subject. The depth of coverage of the subject by the source must be considered. '''If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple independent sources should be cited to establish notability'''."}}  My embolding as  is not a mandate (intentional redlink to underscore that it is not a guide).  Yes, being big and prolific and rich can help with press and notability, and while even this was never a big rich production company like Pixar or Disney or DreamWorks or Sony Pictures Entertainment|Sony or Warner Bros. or MGM, and even if it may be seen as "weak" by some, |notability is not temporary and this one makes it, even if only "just".  And too, this is not being a case of ED, as just as with actors or musicians or artists or politicians or scholars or athletes, a film production company's notability is found through the products they create... what they do or have done '''IS''' the claim to notability.   Wikipedia is not about only the biggest and the best or most popular. It's about topics which meet our inclusion standards.  Legal issues and the company closing down should be added to inform our readers of its history, and it's dissolving is a reason to ensure we get archived news links, but not a reason for the topic of a now-closed company to be deleted. And oh....the "unreliable" and incomplete IMDB's omission errors are not ours
