Lindner-531 and Lindner-433 appear to represent the same person because: I think we have a duplicate couple, all with incomplete profiles:

Gottfried Woite (1842-1913) and Auguste Louise (Lindner) Woite (1859-1943) appear to be the same couple as Gottfried Woite (abt.1830-) and Louise (Lindner) Woite (abt.1855-)

Birth years are off by enough to not register as duplicates, but both couples claim to have married in Kapunda in 1880, and there's only one viable marriage in the Genealogy SA marriage index:

Groom Surname: WOITE Groom Given Names: Gottfried Bride Surname: LINDNER Bride Given Names: Louise Marriage Date: 17-Jul-1880 Marriage Place: Wesleyan Parsonage Kapunda Groom Age: 38 Groom Marital Status: W Groom Father: John WOITE Bride Age: 21 Bride Marital Status: S Bride Father: Wilhelm LINDNER District: Kapunda Book/Page: 124/148

Both women's profiles mention that book/page for their marriage. The groom's marital status is W, so had been married before.
