  Hello Sascha, can you file that as a separate idea please, just so I know what I'm marking as completed when I change the status of a thread.

  Please make it possible that if a "duplicate candidate" is checked as not a duplicate, the system will remember this decision.

  I love this feature! Is there a way to "Batch merge", as opposed to merging each set of duplicates individually, if there are multiple instances of duplicating? Thanks.

  I added a new ticket for duplicates on shared folders, as this bug is still open :-(

  Hello - This thread combines a number of different issues. What we have implemented in Mendeley Desktop 1.0 is a tool to search through your library and find/merge duplicates. To use it, go to Tools -> Check for Duplicates.

  I am marking this thread as completed now. Please open a new threads for any suggestions you have for improvements to the feature or unrelated duplicate document issues.

  Hello Andres,

  The development version* has this feature, the stable version does not. A new stable version with this feature will be out very shortly.

  So is not clear to me. Does Mendeley have that feature currently or not?
  Is a pain to have to export a bibtex to jabref, check for duplicates and import it back to mendeley!!!

  This feature is working for me in the current development preview of 1.0.

  I agree! This is one of the very few things I really miss from EndNote!

  I LOVE Mendeley!! Which is why I am shocked to learn that this isn't a basic feature already!?!?! Please fix!!

  Find and remove duplicates is a MUST, in order to use Mendeley efficiently

  Fully agree.

  fully agree. introduces much error to have us spot that without at least a pop up

• karen widmer commented  ·  July 4, 2011 6:25 p.m.  ·  Flag as inappropriateFlag as inappropriate  ·  Delete

  definitely add this
