Register(MergeDuplicatesGramplet)

please keep in mind I had asked for help on this as I do not know Python. would something like this work? The goal would be to Identify duplicate imported information based on family search ID. what are your thoughts on this, is something missing? Would this work, if so how can I utilize this as a gramplet?

This looks like it tries to merge duplicate Persons
But there’s nothing that keeps it from resulting in People with duplicate secondary objects: Events, Citations, Notes.

You probably want to look at the source for the Isotammi MultiMerge gramplet and built-in Find Possible Duplicate People

You can run this sort of code through SuperTool. That allows avoiding the hassle of building a GUI for the operation.

I will look into the multimerge gramplet. I appreciate the thoughts.
