Comment: The only new footnotes you've added to this since the last time it was rejected are primary source directory entries, not reliable or notability-building sources.
Again, what we need to see is media coverage about the company: not media coverage about its films, and not directory entries, media coverage in which the company and its operations are the subject. Bearcat (talk) 14:46, 1 November 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: We need to see reliable sources (which means media coverage, not directory entries or the company's own self-published website) that are about the company, which is not the same thing as sources that are about the films. Bearcat (talk) 19:24, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Please have a look at your footnotes; some authors' names seem quite odd, don't you agree? --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 15:45, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
- Comment: Notability is WP:Not inherited and you cannot use the companies website as a source when saying "and more". Note that statements saying the production company are the recipients of nominations appear to be false, it would require being specific such as "films by the production company have been nomintated".
