This self-promotional article was recreated after a Speedy Deletion by a suspected sock of the subject of the article, see here. The subject was himself the author of the first incarnation of this article, and the content this time is substantively identical to the prior version, as best I can recall. The subject's particular notability fails when it's seen that he works for a small start-up company which posts up press releases from companies for pay, and maintains a film news in Chicago site which he had spammed all over wikipedia, until editors noted and stopped his actions, at which time he started socking. SInce then, it appears he's begun to freely contribute to Rotten Tomatoes, using the 'credibility' from that to validate his own site, and by extension his article.

 * Delete speedy, if this is a recreation of deleted material then it's a CSD G4, speedy delete & salt. Pete.Hurd 06:26, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - POV, NN, agree with above delete comments. Iamchrisryan 10:50, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete due to failure to establish notability per Wikipedia's standards, not to mention the severe conflict of interest that has compelled the editor to constantly dodge consensus to exclude his information. I would suggest extending the favor of deletion to HollywoodChicago.com as well. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 21:52, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. --Sc straker 17:05, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
