Two identical submissions in one category?

Hello,

Whilst browsing the different categories in the UK looking for a relevant category for my site I noticed that several small sub-categories had at least two submissions from identical URL's with identical descriptions in the same category. Is this even within the spirit of the ODP?

This essentially means any user searching that particular category will be faced with less relevant data (ie: duplications) than if only one submission was held within the category.

Is this right and what can we do to reduce these instances, as it ultimaely reduces the effectiveness of ODP for search users?

Regards

Mr Bo Jangles

Just to make things clearer for us poor editors: you aren't talking about submissions but of directory listings

Duplicate identical listings in the same category isn't something we want - please post the URLs and links to the categories in question here. Thank you!
