Not a single source was given, and I was unable to find a single source regarding this that was neither user-generated nor a mere mention, so very far from having enough coverage for WP:GNG. — Alien333 (what I did & why I did it wrong) 17:29, 21 July 2024 (UTC) Withdrawing as I appear to have grossly failed Wp:BEFORE. — Alien333 (what I did & why I did it wrong) 08:42, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. Even modifying the search to just "Funbag Animation" doesn't turn up much. This is the best I could find and its only passing mentions. Unless anybody finds something significantly better than that its a delete. --DanielRigal (talk) 19:33, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - I'm not having problems finding significant coverage, User:DanielRigal. National Post - ProQuest 329652135, Ottawa Citizen - ProQuest 240317878. Nfitz (talk) 20:00, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    First link does not exist, second link is paywalled but refers (by the title) to a series whose article does not contain the work "funbag". — Alien333 (what I did & why I did it wrong) 11:23, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I've fixed the (rather obvious) typo in the first link, User:Alien333. I don't know what you mean by paywalled. Not only are they are both accessible with your Wikipedia library login, but WP:BEFORE in Section D.2 (WP:CONRED) says to make use of the Wikipedia Library. Which is an absolute must if editing in the area of Canadian subjects, given most of the nations major papers can be found there, but not in Google or even newspapers.com. So I believe this is a BEFORE failure. Also, the former, Funbag is mentioned 8 times. Nfitz (talk) 01:28, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Yikes, I really messed up. Thanks for the wake-up call. Withdrawing nomination, for what it's worth. — Alien333 (what I did & why I did it wrong) 08:42, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I found several articles. Here stuck a deal with UTV. Government of Nova Scotia reports. Sale of assets after bankruptcy here. Book 'Reading between the Borderlines' also mentions it. Other articles are also there. Changeworld1984 (talk) 22:01, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

All except the Government of Nova Scotia are passing mentions, and WP:GNG explicitly requires significant coverage, i.e. not mere mentions. The Nova Scotia one might just push it across the border to GNG, though. — Alien333 (what I did & why I did it wrong) 11:25, 22 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Both articles have Funbag in the headline itself and deal with the studio. These are not passing mentions. And these are just examples that this company has been reported on before. Changeworld1984 (talk) 00:07, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
