Vídeo Brinquedo, Ratatoing and The Little Cars

Short, unreferenced articles about a production company whose only claim to fame is the creation of low-budget plagiarisms of major animated films. Articles do not explain why this company or these films are notable. Ibaranoff24 (talk) 03:55, 31 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep. 19,300 articles about this company come back in a Google search. It seems like a company that's more infamous than famous, but there's plenty of talk on blogs about them. TruthGal (talk) 06:15, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Comment: Had to change my vote. Did further research. Three articles... have to treat each one on its own merits... Michael Q. Schmidt (talk) 06:56, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge Article Vídeo Brinquedo into article Ratatoing. It does not assert notabilty. It is 2 sentences and a list of films. Michael Q. Schmidt (talk) 06:56, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep Article Ratatoing. It is comprehensive and its notability is well sourced. Michael Q. Schmidt (talk) 06:56, 1 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge Article The Little Cars into article Ratatoing. Though not a comprehensive article, it has a well sourced notabilty. Michael Q. Schmidt (talk) 06:56, 1 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep "Vídeo Brinquedo" and "Ratatoing", Weak Keep or Merge "The Little Cars". If a film is notable, I think the company that created it is notable by association.  A cursory Google search reveals a lot of articles mentioning the company name, although few or none seem to be in English (which is understandable for a Brazilian company).

 * Keep Ratatoing and The Little Cars - I am undecided about the third. Both of the films have reliable sources, and both claim notability as being perceived as knockoffs of Pixar films. WhisperToMe (talk) 00:54, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
