Attempts to delete duplicated photos failed

@Michelle Define rare please. As you say yourself, this issue has come up in the recent past as well as now, so to me, it doesn't seem to be extremely rare.

Apart from that, how is a contributor to know which duplicates can and can't be deleted? If contributors can't know this, you're risking contributors not contributing to these kind of issues.

And of course, are there plans to mitigate this issue in the future so all dupes can be deleted if discovered and the database will look a bit more professional?

Hi Marco -

Perhaps I used the wrong terminology (stating "rare") in my previous reply, instead I should have communicated that these are "unique" exceptions, wherein we must allow the duplicate to display on the site, as the live image is being used for other features on the site.

We are aware of the inconsistency and  complications with these duplicate images, so it is on our radar for future improvements.

Cheers!

I hope it is still somewhere on the radar, because I bumped into this problem again:
