Thanks for the report here. Just to confirm, if you’re referring to deleting an entry from the Alternate Names tab, you can already do this by selecting the entry and pressing the delete key on your keyboard.
Please let me know if that is what you were after.

Hey,
Thank you for the tip, however that’s not what I’m after. When doing an audit, or just general housekeeping, I’d like to be able to delete (if possible) the duplicate game associated with the alternate name.
If that would be possible, it would make for a little easier in deleting duplicate games.
Cheers :)

Hi there, sorry for the delayed follow-up. Thanks for elaborating, but I’m not 100% sure what you’re referring to here.
When you run an audit of a platform using the Audit tool, from the results you can already right-click on a delete to delete it directly from this window.
I’m not quite following the part about “duplicate name associated with the alternative name”. Apologies if we’re missing something obvious here, but if you can elaborate on this (ideally if you can include some screenshots showing where you want to be able to delete things from), then we’ll make sure we get this properly fleshed out.
Cheers,

All good.
Indeed, a picture paints a thousand words :)
So after completing an audit of a platform or all games, we get presented with the following snippet.
Clicking on the ‘Alternate Names’ link (circled) it presents the following screen.
At times I have noticed that the duplicate checkbox is ticked and the game filename is actually named one of these alternate names.
Being able to check that the duplicate game does in fact exist and being able to delete it/them would be great.
