Tagged for additional citations needed since 2014 with no improvement. Sources are a production company's website, IMDB, and a WP:USERGENERATED site. WP:BEFORE discloses no evidence of significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. No evidence this passes GNG or any applicable SNG.

- The essay WP:INHERITED does say "Notability of one or more members of some group or class of subjects may or may not apply to other possible members of that group" - but I'm not clear what the class (or group) is in this case. Nfitz (talk) 03:25, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @Nfitz: that essay provides a definition:
Inherited notability is the idea that something qualifies for an article merely because it was associated with some other, legitimately notable subjects.
The articles you link are neither about Hoze Hounds but rather about the animated appearance of two legendary Canadian media personalities on the show. Using those articles as evidence of significant coverage of the subject in reliable, independent sources is not actually useful. It is significant coverage of Cherry and MacLean, not the show. The show is "...associated with some other, legitimately notable..." persons by these articles, but not legitimately notable itself. I hope that helps.

- They're about Ron MacLean and Don Cherry working on this show, so they most certainly do count as coverage of this show. Coverage of Ron and Don in a Hockey Night in Canada context obviously wouldn't help to establish the notability of Hoze Houndz, but coverage of Ron and Don in a Hoze Houndz context most certainly does. Whether they count for enough on their own may be debatable, but they certainly don't count for nothing. Bearcat (talk) 13:33, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- If I implied they counted for nothing, I apologize. I certainly did not intent to. These articles are, however, the only coverage beyond the database/UGC type stuff I mentioned earlier. I do not feel they are significant enough evidence that this show had an impact. No RS covered the start of the show, its end, any other events during its broadcast history, what happened after cancellation, reviewed it, or provided any other coverage about the show. If they did, they have been lost. That is why I said these two articles about Cherry and MacLean are not by themselves evidence that the show is itself notable. I hope that explains my position in further depth. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 13:46, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- I didn't list any other articles, as I thought the Montreal Gazette/National Post feature was more than adequate. There's certainly more out there - see comment below. Nfitz (talk) 16:21, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Alliance Atlantis is a distributor - and not even globally I think. The production company Amberwood Entertainment would work better - but that article doesn't exist. Another alternative would be Sheldon Wiseman - the producer. I've no doubt something in between those 2 articles and this one is notable - but this is all that exists currently.
