Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gilean" data-source="post: 967043" data-attributes="member: 136561">Thanks for the tip! I had tried drag&dropping the duplicate artist together as I thought library could maybe combine those duplicates into one, and tried to delete the duplicate artists but plugin didn't let me do that. I never thought about dragging/removing the songs itself but that does work! Apparently when you MOVE the last song from that duplicate entry, the whole duplicate artist entry disappears, but if you just delete that duplicate song, the database will then have duplicate artist entry that you cannot delete. The only way is to drag some song under that artist, and then drag the same song away, that will clear the artist entry. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> I am not sure if this helps for solving the root of the issue, but apparently all those duplicates were at the beginning of the database - for artists like 22-Pistepirkko, 3 Doors Down, 4 Non Blondes and AC/DC. I remember I closed the plugin settings first time when I saw how long the scraping process was going to take, and then opened it again later, and that time the whole process started all over again. Maybe that created the duplicates? All the other duplicate artists have clear reason, like DAD, D-A-D and D.A.D. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Great, I hope maybe sometime in future one could choose the source database of artist info by artist, when fine-tuning database entries after scraping process <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> For example, one could compare artist entry in Wikipedia and Last.Fm and then choose one of them as source for that artist <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
