Side-tracking this discussion more than slightly...

One thing I've noticed is that pretty much every athlete from recent
Olympics has two topics: one imported from Wikipedia, and one created by
jg back in May 2007. For a very typical example, see /en/axel_hager and
/guid/9202a8c04000641f8000000004f76ba8.

I'm flagging each of these into the queue, but I imagine the rest of the
world is getting fed up at dealing with vast numbers of volleyball
player merges :-) Is there any other way I should be handling this?

Cheers,

Phil
