Although this is written differently enough from the first attempt to not qualify for G4 speedy, what it still isn't is properly sourced. There are just three footnoted references here, of which one is a blurb, one is a YouTube video and one is a Q&A interview in which Hilsenteger is speaking about himself, which means exactly none of them can support notability at all. And then of the four links that are being contextlessly linkfarmed as external links instead of being properly cited as references, one (Entertainment Focus) is an entirely unreliable site, two just glancingly namecheck Hilsenteger's existence in the process of not being about him, and the last once again features him speaking about himself rather than being independently written about by third parties. Which means that the sources here are still batting zero for seven at getting him over WP:GNG as the subject of coverage in reliable sources that are independent of him.
