Description Andrew Fuerste-Henry 2025-07-17 13:35:34 UTC
It'd be nice if users could initiate/schedule a the dedup_authorities cron as a background job. We can show the user the script output in the background job details. There's no particular interface needed here; the script doesn't include any mechanism for seeing the potential dupes and then confirming that you want to delete them.
