- xlnt 18y agoThe point is that we don't want duplicate content, even if it's at slightly different URLs.
- boucher 18y agoI think the counter-point was that it may actually be different content. How often that is the case, I don't know, but assuming it will never happen doesn't necessarily seem like a great idea.
- xlnt 18y agoMaybe the system should actually check what's at each page. And you should read more carefully. I did not suggest the thing you say is a bad idea.

Notice the "//" before the filename in the first version.
