@Vorpalblade77-kaart: I blanked the item based on your request. The best practice would be to merge this item with network=US:TX:PA (Q21323), but Special:MergeItems is only accessible to users in the "Data administrators" group. Yurik, can you merge the items? Thanks! – Minh Nguyễn 💬 20:08, 16 August 2021 (UTC)

You are probably right that merging is probably the better route (does it just do a redirect?). If it would be preferred to merge duplicate items, we may want to document that on the main wiki data item page. I want to say User:Tigerfell recommended using the delete template when I first started finding/looking for duplicates, but that is on a now deleted wiki data item discussion page.

@Vorpalblade77-kaart: Yes, Yurik already merged this item, which is why Item:Q21754 is a redirect to network=US:TX:PA (Q21323). – Minh Nguyễn 💬 18:55, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

@Minh Nguyen: you really should just apply to become the data admin, perhaps with a few other users who have been very active with data items and have a good grasp of wikibase concepts. See list of bureaucrats who can grant it. --Yurik (talk)
