Duplicate identification

Post by BookOfBen »

You could check if the filename of the audio being uploaded is identical to any of the last 20 files uploaded, and flag it to the user as a potential duplicate.

Thank you for your suggestion. How often this happens as it will require some time for development and implementation?

The problem would be when the person uploads the first part and then, the second part of the sample (unless he states that for sure).

Czar, my guess would be four times a day, but that's probably skewed, since I figure I'm online when the site isn't as active (due to my timezone). Your moderators would have a better idea.

Hernan, that's why I mentioned to flag it, rather than outright prevent it.
Another option would be to let the user do it without issue, and flag it to the moderators to check.
