Non-neutral biography of a non-notable businessman that would appear to be a veiled advertisement for his non-notable business: the Chief Digital Officer for Engauge, a total marketing solutions agency combining the disciplines of branding, digital and direct marketing. Best of the sources is a three paragraph, press release based blurb from a CNN-Money website; rest are to Top 25 lists and routine press release announcements of acquisitions and mergers. They establish that he has done good works such as service in a local Junior Achievement chapter and a children's museum board. Contested proposed deletion.

 * I restored the prod. I want to weekly support deletion for this article.  There are a number of sources and it might be possible to find others, but I haven't found too many good ones in my search.  Also please look at the cited sources in the article before commenting.  As the nom says, many are press releases or lists which aren't very good fonts of information for a biographical article and can tell us little about the subject in a neutral fashion.  There isn't really a slam dunk case for deletion but don't be fooled by the number of links in the reference section. Protonk (talk) 00:23, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete as spam. I'd favor db-g11 but more discussion is probably a good idea as Tondas13, the user who requested undeletion, claims to be speaking on Hilimire's behalf and thinks all the promotional/press release content is "correct and accurate."  – Athaenara  ✉  12:52, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as non-notable, spammy. This kind of thing shouldn't be in an encyclopedia. —Tom Morris (talk) 10:06, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
