Duplicate artist accounts

Why are there more than one artist account, is it a typo or it was made by purpose (artist had another nickname)?

For example, I found that J. Cole has two accounts: first of them has new music and it's called "J. Cole", and the second one has only his old music and it's called "J Cole" (without a dot) — is it a typo or was it made by purpose?

And if it was a typo, how could I report it in the future?

    @helene.deezer, can you also pass them those two links: Aminé and Amine? This account has been also split.

    Hi @yalexaner, if you paste the artists' profile links here, I can send them to the catalog to make sure everything is correct.

     

    Content is cataloged exactly as it is sent to us by labels. Consequently, our system will think they are two different people if they started sending us music under "J. Cole" and then changed it to "J Cole". In that case, we must manually make the correction 😉

    I've saw that Mediaeval Baebes (https://deezer.page.link/juDY9gwEMnKfgGSU7) have another page (https://deezer.page.link/on2Ztd6hQxrk2EAR6). Could you please merge them into one account? 

    (The best name would be "Mediæval Bæbes)

    Ps: I know I have asked before to merge their pages into one, but I've notice this third one just now.

    I have found some duplicate artist pages. These are famous singers with Chinese names.

    There are 5 pages for the one artist 孙燕姿 (Stefanie Sun):

    https://www.deezer.com/us/artist/6083506
    https://www.deezer.com/us/artist/65198

    https://www.deezer.com/us/artist/12110

    https://www.deezer.com/us/artist/5186139

    https://www.deezer.com/us/artist/5463686

    I would say that all 5 ways of writing her name are acceptable. But these are all the same individual.

    There are 2 pages for the artist 王菲 (Faye Wong):

    https://www.deezer.com/us/artist/131693

    https://www.deezer.com/us/artist/625445

    There probably are more examples of artists with Chinese names having duplicate pages. These are just the first two I have found.
