    Duplicate Approved Questions in the AE section

    This is a another catch by me! While going through the Ask Expert section, I have again found two duplicate questions which are approved by the editor of the Ask Expert section. I guess the editors are not working properly as I have also found a duplicate approved question once before from which one of them then was deleted by Ankit. And I am here again with the same issue. You can also see the result of editors work from the link given below:
    "http://www.techulator.com/forum/7128-Wrong-category-selected-for-the-Contest.aspx"
    "http://www.techulator.com/forum/7127-Are-Editors-only-meant-to-Reduce-my-Points.aspx"

    Now coming to the thread, the link for the two duplicate questions are given below. Even the editor Timmappa Kamat has himself answered in both the thread. Does he was not aware of that he answered the same in another thread? Links are as follows:

    What is the default user name and password for Airtel 4G hotspot?

    What is the default user name and password for Airtel 4G WiFi hotspot?

    Even the question line is also copied in both the questions. As the editor have only approved those duplicate questions. So I would just request the webmaster to actively participate in this, no other!

    Aman,
    No matter what mistakes are made, there is no call to start throwing barbs at the editors. You can simply point out the mistake in a nice manner and it will be looked into.

    I find that the harder I work, the more luck I seem to have.

    I would wish to bring to the attention of all members that forum threads and responses are rarely reviewed unless absolutely necessary. When someone posts the query or information in the wrong section- it just stays there as long as nobody has noticed it.
    We do not edit each and every thread in the forum section. Hope this clears the doubts.

    I am posting this with respect to the first two links in the thread.

    Live....and Let Live!

    I would like to request the webmaster to look into this as soon as possible. I guess of those questions will be deleted as the last time when I found such duplicate questions then one of them was deleted.

    The duplicate question will be deleted. Note that since there are multiple editors in each section, it is possible that the one who reviewed the later posted query was not aware of the earlier posted query.

    @ Aman: do not post a needless response like #22386.

    @ Timmappa: this thread is about duplicate AE questions, not about any forum posts. (although Aman did needlessly mention the forum duplicates).

    I am closing this thread now since there is no point in discussing this any further.

    Regards,
    Vandana
