Photos & Reviews of Duplicate places

Hi friends,

As all of us knew that we can report the duplicated places and I have a question.

The Photos, videos, ratings, and reviews of the duplicate places will be deleted or merged? It would be better if those duplicate place resources are merged.

Because it is very hard to judge which one is primary and second. So in case if we report a duplication of place with more reviews and photos we may lose all the important reviews and photos.

Looking for your guidance,

Thanks in advance,

John Peter

Hi @JohnPeter ,

While merging duplicate places, Google Team will look for the best place to keep and merge the other.

Hi @JohnPeter in the ones I’ve personally seen, the images and reviews are merged after being deduplicated.
