Chutzpa Productions

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Questionably notable and improvable company article as I simply found nothing better than the usual expected links here and this simply has not noticeably improved since starting in June 2009. Pinging, and  and there were a few other pingable users such as Qwyrxian and Astronaut. SwisterTwister  talk  06:10, 30 October 2015 (UTC)

 * The company's corporate website - which is not listed on the article - does have a webpage devoted to press coverage. I'll take a look, when I get a chance, and encourages others to. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:06, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
 * If you Google founder "Igal Hecht" + Chutzpa (or Chutzpah, the more common spelling even though it's not the official name) one does find OK coverage on the company company's founder and principal, Hecht, which has produced some clearly notable works. This article in Critics at large, a blog published by professional some writers, this piece in Jewish news site Shalom Life, this piece in Christian Week, etc. And then, with the mispelled company name Chutzpah (the more common spelling as a common noun), there's this lengthy interview in Canadian Jewish News, here. Its films have also screened at notable fests, as well, such as Hot Docs, NXNE, etc. I wonder if the solution isn't to repurpose as a bio article on Igal Hecht. Anyway, while the nominator raises some very valid concerns, I can find enough coverage that I think it meets WP:ORG, in the sense that Hecht is Chuzpa, so Keep.

 * Keep. , but consider reorienting the article to be on the person instead, if    all of this is his personal work.  DGG ( talk ) 15:20, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I work quite a bit on the doc side, and if it's kept I'd be happy to move the page to Igal Hecht, do some editing to refocus and add a few references. I can't say I'm terribly motivated to work on the Hecht bio article nor am I that into his body of work, but I would not leave it as is, I promise.

 * Keep The breadth and scope of the documentary work is a strong claim of notability and the sources and material here and available elsewhere justifies retention under the notability standard. Alansohn (talk) 00:52, 1 November 2015 (UTC)
