[Suggestion] Guidelines (or algorithm) how to treat station doublures #2

Open Wikinaut opened 8 years ago

Wikinaut commented 8 years ago

Example:

Currently there are two entries

How to treat them ? I don't want to delete one of them because perhaps users have the one station in their list.

A "guideline" should explain, what to do in this case, or the entries to be merged in a certain way

Idea: differently spelled name variants should be allowed, but they can be linked to point to the same (single and unique) station data set in the database.

Difficult perhaps, and perhaps superfluous. But please explain, what you would propose in such cases.

My 2 ct: I think this is superfluous. I checked today and could not find any stations that have the same stream URLs.
