      I see that there's some duplication between those two types (and also some other types--for example, I just added all Computer Games into Software).

      I just don't know how to fix this. There is a Linux Game Platform, and a Linux Computing Platform. I was thinking of just adding all Game Platforms into Computing Platform, but maybe that would cause duplication?

        Yeah. There are two Linux objects. One is a Game Platform, Software, Topic, etc. The other is an Operating System, Computing System, etc. The second one should be assimilated into the first one because the first one has a short URL (the other one uses a large ID). This could happen with other platforms, too, although I haven't checked just yet. How can one fix this?

        If they're really just duplicate topics, you can flag them to be merged by clicking the little arrow button that appears next to the "edit" button to the right of the the topic's title.
