Misuse of the duplicate tag

Posted under General

Could this happen if the parent or child got hard deleted?

Also a couple of cases where the parent/child gets wrongly removed as happened with post #1056096.

Or the tag could just have been added by mistake (including one slightly bizarre situation where the post had been parented to itself).

The fact that basically all the duplicate parent:none child:none posts have/had (I got rid of a few) different people causing it suggests that there isn't anything malicious going on here.
