My actors and actresses items *Bug*

On the Movies Home page, it shows more items then I actually have under the actors and actresses.

For instance, I have only seen 7 movies with Bruce Willis in them.
But on the Movie Home page, it shows that Bruce Willis has 21 items under him.

this bug resurfaced its ugly head tonight.

Bruce Willis is once again at 42 views, but only have him on 14 items. damn Bruce keeps trying to hog all the Listal view points. LOL

I've been fixing the 'person' tables to remove all the duplicates which was especially bad for the music section. There were a lot of entries where the only difference in names was that one had a carriage return after the name (which you can't even see if you look in a browser).

Bit of a nightmare really! :)

Should be better now.

Speaking of duplicates in the music section, these ones each have multiple entries if you want to fix them:

Iron & Wine
Iron and Wine * proper one

KLF
The KLF * proper one

Mum
Mรƒฦ’ร‚ยบm
Mรƒยบm * proper one

I've noticed a few bands still with multiple entries, such as:

Dresden Dolls
The Dresden Dolls (proper name)

REM
R.E.M. (proper name)

Flaming Lips
The Flaming Lips (I think thats the proper one)

Blink 182
Blink-182 (proper name)

Smashing Pumpkins
The Smashing Pumpkins (proper name)

Theres some more, looking through the top artists will bring up a few. ;)

Amazon seems to return different artist names for different products :(

I guess i need some kind of merge artist function.

I've been thinking a lot about duplicates on the site generally and I can't think of a really good solution to it, I kind of wish I never used amazon in the first place.
