Is there a way to identify empty profiles?

I'm currently going through Scott profiles with no profile manager and no dates and adding in estimated birth dates. I've come upon one (and I'm sure there will be others) that is completely empty - no dates, no relationships, no nothing. It's a nice low number, so it would be great if this profile could be flagged so someone entering a new Scott profile could use this one instead of making a new one.

What would be the best way of doing that?

Since the profile has No Information, only her name.  Adopt the profile and merge it with one of the other profiles with that name.  Remembering to merge to the lower number.  All data will go to this record.  Once merged, be sure to go back into the Bio and make sure there are no duplicate information.  

 

Thank you for catching this.

Thanks! Now why didn't I think of that? :) I was thinking about using it the next time I created a Scott profile, but didn't even think about merging one of my existing Scott profiles into it. I'll use it on my Scott brick wall - maybe that will bring me luck!
That sounds like a great idea, thank you.
