Neutral at this point but it's worth pointing out that fr:Les 400 coups (maison d'édition) on the French project has multiple sources (not evaluated at this point) worth closer examination. MLauba ^(Talk) 15:30, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Le devoir is a mainstream news publication in Quebec and almost certainly meets RS standards. Have not studied up on notability standards for publishing houses but hopefully it helps to know that at least a couple of the sources MLauba mentioned.

Comment While the article seems incomplete with only one source at the moment, it's important to note WP:ARTN. Belichickoverbrady (talk) 01:10, 14 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at the French sources, Le Devoir is RS, the rest are less so. It's not the best for sourcing, but one of their authors won a prize from the Montreal Library Association for a book [1]. The book has coverage in a few other sources, but it's all brief mentions of the publisher. Weak keep, stronger sourcing would help. Oaktree b (talk) 18:49, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

[2] they're mentioned as having won awards at the Bologna Children's Book Fair, but I can't find much more than a mention about it. Oaktree b (talk) 18:51, 18 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Here's the announcement of winning the "Bologna Prize for the Best Children's Publishers of the Year" for "North America". A prize is also awarded for the other major regions, e.g. Europe, Africa, Asia, Oceania, and Central/South America. It appears to be a prestigious prize in the children's publishing industry. Pushes it towards a Weak Keep for me too. HighKing⁺⁺ 15:18, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
