You could create a duplicate profile which later can be merged.

Sorry, Chris, but no. Duplicates may only be created deliberately in two quite rare situations, not including this one. See

Sorry Jim, I did not intend to make a duplicate question! I thought the first one did not go through. Can I delete the first one are can you do it? Jimmy Lewis

Hi Jimmy. In my response to Chris I was referring to duplicate profiles, not duplicate G2G questions.

You can close this G2G question using the small close link that appears just under the question on its webpage, mentioning in the explanation field that you are closing it because it is a duplicate.
