Jake Hamilton[edit]

Bio written by user:Jake The Movie Guy. Looks like self-promotion to me. Is he notable? — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 17:57, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He is pretty notable in Houston. The only film critic, pretty much covers all entertainment news. Lots of billboards around town with him, and the station advertises him pretty well. Heard he got an Emmy nomination but don't know if this is true. Not worth deleting. It's all true. — IntheRED (Talk | contribs) 13:34, 24 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

yeah he interviews everyone, you cant turn on your tv in houston without seeing this guy. his interviews are pretty cool. — makingmyway12 (Talk | contribs) 02:23, 25 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: The above comments were all written by Jake The Movie Guy (talk · contribs). He also replaced his username in the nominators rationale by user:IntheRED, which I undid. --Amalthea^Talk 15:32, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, fails WP:BIO. The "Win a date with Jake Hamilton" thing [1] [2] is far from enough to fulfill significant coverage about the topic. Him writing for the Houston Chronicle doesn't make him notable either. See this unreliable source for a biography about him, which is not enough for an encyclopaedic entry. --Amalthea^Talk 15:38, 29 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
