Hi there,

I have a project suggestion for the 'Files' section as follows:

File Duplicate Remover - Create a script that can remove duplicates in the same folder to help with file management, backups and cleanups. [jefnilham (Python)]

The solution I suggested and linked above uses hashes to compare whether the file already exists within the same folder. People can attempt this with many different approaches; from reading filenames or hashes, or recursively reading within subfolders as well. People can also work on my solution taking into account creation or last edit dates etc.
