Try Find Duplicate Citations which includes Names as well as Facts.

Dave, the version I posted yesterday is NOT the Plugin Store version. (It just happens to keep the same name.)
As I said yesterday, I have adapted it to include Names, so please try it.

I am tempted to ask CP to update their plugin to include Name Citations, and all other possible Citations for FH V7, so that it fully fulfils its title.

Thank You Mike!
That works great. I had not noticed that it wasnt the plug in store. Yes, I think you should find out about getting the one in the plugin store replaced or renamed.

Dave, would it be possible for you to ask CP to update that plugin?
Use their Support Ticket System at https://support.calico-pie.com/open.php

Request CP to not only include Name Citations, but also whole record Citations, and preferably all other Citations, so that the plugin behaviour matches its title.

Mike, any reason you're not asking yourself?

It is not me who wants to find duplicate Name Citations. I'm busy enough as it is!
