 * If he admitted it, what's the issue? --Deskana (talk) 15:20, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, the issue is that he is operating two accounts and is only one person, and they were both trying to create the same article. However, I have since had some more contact with this user, and it seems to be a "rookie mistake" in that he honestly didn't realize what a bad move this was. The question now is what do we do with the first, now un-needed account? My guess is redirect to the Daniel Zhang account. Beeblebrox (talk) 16:40, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Put a tag on it. Multiple accounts are permitted, so a link on the userpages that makes it clear that both accounts are owned by the same person would be fine. --Deskana (talk) 18:49, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
