duplicate modules
« on: September 11, 2007, 10:02:34 »

Found some modules that are identical?

List their module IDs / links to the modules and if you know which one would be the correct one to keep, please say so as well.



FAQ:

Q: If it's a duplicate do the hits totals get added?

A: Yes, so do:

  • Comments
  • Reviews
  • Favourites
  • Pseudonym Aliases
  • Artist Ownership
  • More...

Also, the archive date of the oldest now prevails (automatically)

These
http://modarchive.org/module.php?47983
http://modarchive.org/module.php?174452

are smaller versions of
http://modarchive.org/module.php?32380

Differences beyond the small ones in sample text? Which one(s) should prevail?

Anyway, all of them and this one
http://modarchive.org/module.php?39874

should be assigned to Zodiak's profile.

Modules have been merged and assigned. Which module text prevails is acutally not a question because we always show the actual file content, i.e. since the smaller versions have been deleted, their text is now gone too.

Yeah, I meant which file or files should stay. I couldn't say myself.

Hi,

Those 3 are identical I believe:
* http://modarchive.org/module.php?52928
* http://modarchive.org/module.php?52727
* http://modarchive.org/module.php?55521

I'm not sure which one should be the canonical version though...

Nice find, plinker.mod is definitely not the original as it contains a trimmed sample, so it's one of the other two. The only difference I can spot is a single letter in the sample names, so it probably doesn't make much of a difference which one is kept.

Another 2 identical:
* http://modarchive.org/module.php?39533
* http://modarchive.org/module.php?39944

I'd keep the one named "CBR.MOD" because that's how I came to know this module 20+ years ago ;) but I don't really mind.

Just noticed:

http://modarchive.org/module.php?154989
http://modarchive.org/module.php?58596

The older one is the original, although I can't spot any differences apart from very minor sample text edits; wonder why anyone would've done that.

I found those two:
http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=52354
http://modarchive.org/index.php?request=view_by_moduleid&query=164407

I also found a copy of this mod (with yet another checksum) here: http://hxc2001.free.fr/modules/mods/random_voice-monday.rar, but I am unable to say which is the original.
