AdamFendelman stopped editing on 3 September (contribs), the same day that Happynesss began. As evidenced by their contribs, bboth have edited the same pages, most notably HollywoodChicago.com, run by Fendelman. Similar curt edit summaries are used, as are citations of Fendelman's own interviews and repeated insertions of links to his website: happynesss inserts HollywoodChicago here and fendelman promoting text here, AdamFendelman often did the same, see here and here. Right down to the edit summary "Added Critic Quote" and "Added Rotten Tomatoes Critic Quote", it's the same self-serving editing he was warned about, and claimed to have left because of.

I'd also like to bring to attention AdamFendelman's conduct based on the incident report found here (section called Here, SSP, or CU?). I would strongly suggest for his site to be blacklisted, considering that with the apparent validity of this sockpuppet report, an article like HollywoodChicago.com is clearly promotional. He has not learned his lesson about not using Wikipedia to solicite his site. —Erik (talk • contrib) - 22:00, 3 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Conclusions
 * Clearly the same person, but there's no glaring violation of WP:SOCK. With the deletion of HollywoodChicago.com the accounts have no recent edits. No reason to do anything at the moment. --Akhilleus (talk) 16:40, 19 October 2007 (UTC)
