Can someone please tell my why Rose May O'Connor has herself as half-sister [closed]

Question

There are two Rose May (O'Connor) Warner's showing as half-sisters on O'Connor-4373 and they both have the same profile number, but one of them is showing this URL -- https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/O%27Connor-4373.  (Looks like something may be wrong with O' which is showing as O%27Connor in one of the URLs).  There was a merge done on 6 Nov 2019 for O'Connor-4386 into O'Connor-4373.  The father's profile shows two Rose May's, but the mother only shows one Rose May.  I expect the fix may be easy, but I don't know what it is.  Thanks for any help.

I would say how to fix it, but instead I will say you need to tag your question with bugs, or Jamie, or both.  (Apparently I erred the last couple of ghost issues, because Jamie was wanting to track this thing, and fixing it beforehand meant no can track.)

Thanks, Melanie! I thought it might need some other tag, but I didn't know which one.

---

You'll need to separate those tags.  As they are right now it's all one long tag nobody is following.  (Underscores should only be used for such tags as military_and_war, or dutch_roots, etc.)

---

It all has to do with a bug in the merge process that sometimes leaves a ghost profile with a parent or spouse.

---

Thanks again, Melanie. I guess you're my teacher for the day. You can tell I haven't asked many questions! Hopefully I got it right this time.

---

Thanks, Kathie.

Eh, if they are old enough it's OK to fix. What I'm really looking for a one that happened fairly soon before it was reported.

How soon, then, is "fairly soon"?  (Because I have been chastised for correcting ghosts.)

Ideally, it would be within a few days, but anything since we started trying to track down the problem. If it's older than March 2020 then feel free to fix.

(Sometimes I get chastised by well-meaning users too, so don't feel too badly about it :))

So, pretty much pre-covid!

Or pre-RootsTech 2020

Okay, so we can fix this one... Can someone fix it, please, or walk me through how to do it? Thanks!  (Warning: I'm not real literate in this kind of thing.)

Not fixed.  The usual method of removing the duplicate from the parent did not work.

Thank you, Kathie!

I'm only seeing one.

I think it is fixed, Melanie. One Rose and parents only show one Rose.  I think I was fixing it while you were commenting.
