Ability to report duplicate entries in the app
planned

I know there are plans to eventually add the ability to submit details in the app, but in the meantime it would be nice if there was an easy way in the app to flag duplicate entries you find. I usually only stumble across them when browsing or adding a car when shopping so it isn't always convenient to report on roadmap and I usually forget by the time I am somewhere I can do it.

Merged in a post:
The access to report duplicate cars

I‘ve discovered some duplicate cars during my first month usage. I think it may cause confusion for users who want to add them to their garage or have already added one of them to their garage. If official members can receive reports on multiple duplicate vehicles from users and merge these vehicles (at the same time, merge the ownership, wishlists, ratings and reviews, etc), the problems above will be solved UwU. (Perhaps there’s a better approach besides merging, but I can't think of it at the moment.）
I saw a post by @Brennok requesting almost the same feature. It was posted nearly a month ago, but official members haven’t responded to it. Therefore, I voted for him or her and wrote this post to request the feature as well as to remind the official team about giving a feedback OwO.

I would also like to suggest that if a car in your collection is removed (for being a duplicate entry, as an example) that the user gets a notification of which car was removed, so they can attempt to re-add it under a different entry.

Kirk Moseley I believe they usually try to merge duplicates so it should be moved. I do agree though if you own a car from an entry that is deleted it should alert you if it isn't automatically moved to the updated listing. Car collection numbers should never go down unless the user themselves decreases the count.
