Uniqueness of url #3

Closed wergstatt closed 4 years ago

The preferred unique identifier for a journal-publisher combination is the URL of the journal. Sadly, there are two examples, where the link is not a unique identifier. As those are not relevant at all, it should be a valid strategy to filter them.

[ ] Filter duplicate URLs in the database.
[x] Replace JID and VID as identifiers by the URL which incorporates both informations.

Currently, duplicates are filtered in python, which is far from optimal, as it should be part of the T process, but the case shouldn't exist, thus it is not worth solving the problem for a single irrelevant incident.

Consequences of ignoring the duplicate are minor.
