SEGRUSF You can't do it yourself.
Read the FAQ,  mark it as duplicate and an administrator will look at it.

Indeed, I have deleted the item (you get a standard message).

If you have a double (or you see a double):
in the newest one (biggest item number) first empty the titles, and then fill it in with :
in NL (Dutch): 'DOUBLURE of xxxxxx'
In EN (English) you put 'DOUBLURE from xxxxxx'
In FR (French): 'DOUBLURE de xxxxxx'
In DU (German): 'DOPPELT von xxxxxx'
xxxxx = the item number of the oldest one (the item that should stay.

It is always the oldest items that remains.
If that item is incomplete, you can add information to that item.
If the oldest item has a bad picture (low quality), you can replace it with your own, better, scan.

Question Raoul, we are here but at the Dutch institution of LD.
Can you then write in Dutch, or with the translation, would be nice for others, they can also read what you write.

ah, forgot to tick 'English' ... Was an answer for a user who does not speak Dutch, hence.
If I put a check mark it would normally appear on the NL site in Dutch (translated).

I think it is even true that you can simply answer in Dutch. LastDodo translator just converts everything to english on the german, french and even the english site variants. You don't have to tick anything either. Saves you a lot of trouble translating, or you must like this.

By the way, Raoul62 , you can give the person who started this forum post a bit of a nerd because of DOUBLURES, today almost all first daily newspapers Germany. One was not yet in the catalog !. One has even been reintroduced, but had the good user put it up for sale before?.

I see about 6 of them as duplication. I'll try to delete them and pickle the default message.

I don't think Raoul62 helps, such a pickled message. See last three new items.

You are now blocked again. You cannot add more in the catalog.
You do not search and you do not fill in the fields as agreed in the stamp handbook.
For now you will have to make do with the items in the catalog. And I think that's more than enough, judging by the number of duplications you've added recently.
Another 'victim' will have to be found to give you the opportunity to add again, under supervision.
I can't do anything myself, I've tried and apparently failed.

… how careful is capitalization? I have marked many of them as “Double of …” over time. (The Netherlands). Is that okay?

portbetaald nothing at all with duplication. He is found anyway, and merged, or rejected.

Is my fault. I started with shouting capital letters DOUBLURE at the time, in the hope that "automatic clickers" would be more aware that it is a duplication and it is not wise to hang on to that. Postmaster has to merge with extra trailers, which is extra work for him.

thanks. And another afterburner: at the moment I only change the Dutch name without emptying the other languages and having them translated again to “Duplicate of” and so on. That's a bit lazy on my part, but is that still an issue?

portbetaald No problem for Postmaster to find and deal with this, but in the meantime, other language users may start working with it. Sooner or later this will be detected (usually early because Postmaster works quickly).

That's how it goes these days: a group of volunteers checks ALL new entries a few times a day. If a duplication is detected, the title is adjusted with DOUBLURE of xxxxxxx. As a retiree I can also participate in this. Some good importers also report ITSELF if they accidentally enter a duplication.
I think it is normal that action is taken as soon as possible. In case after checking I draw the same conclusion (so double checking), the record can be rejected by me, PROVIDED that no one other than the importer is attached to it. Only if there are other followers does Postmaster have to get involved through a merge procedure.
In most cases, hasty urgency is now good; this is the exception to the rule.....
Moreover, the volunteer group as a whole naturally has more expertise in-house than a "separate" administrator.
