Duplicate line removal checks before replacing source data

Removing duplicate lines can clean lists quickly, but exact matching, order, casing, and whitespace rules need a clear decision.

Define duplicate criteria

Choose whether duplicates should match exactly or after trimming whitespace and normalizing case.

Preserve useful order

Keep first occurrence when list order matters, and keep last occurrence when newer entries should win.

Protect intentional repeats

Do not remove repeated lines from logs, scripts, poems, CSV rows, or ranked lists unless repetition is truly unwanted.

Compare before and after

Review removed lines and final counts before using cleaned output in imports, allowlists, redirects, or reports.
