DMOZ and Duplicates
I imported a small part of DMOZ, and I now have more than 18,000 duplicates. Is there a fast way to delete all those duplicates (for example delete all records that are duplicate and the ID greater than XX).

Thanks,

Didi

You have to do it via Database > Check Duplicates. As far as I know, there is no quick/easy way to get around this :(

Thanks Andy, I was afraid that was the answer...

How do I change the number of duplicates shown on each page (currently it shows 10 pairs of duplicates each time, if I could see more per page, it would take less time to complete the process)?

You would have to modify the hard codes. I beleive its in /admin/Links/Tools.pm. Not sure how easy it is to do though, as I tried something similar before Unimpressed
