It sounds like Chenhe is talking about articles with multiple authors. They're importing a set of articles by author A, then a set of articles by author B - this means that any articles co-authored by both are imported twice.

The functionality to detect duplicities is not currently available in DSpace. Such feature has been requested before and I'm asking about your definition of a duplicity in order to gather the requirements for such a feature. Your definition of a duplicity is very ambiguous. In fact, you're not saying at all what the two items have in common - you're saying that although they have different authors, they should be considered the same item! I hope you can see how this wouldn't work in general. At this time my understanding is that the definitions of a duplicity are very different for various users and the method for comparison of two items would have to be implemented as a plugin. That could also make it rather slow.
