Abstract
In one implementation, a method is provided that receives multiple potential listings associated with an entity. A listing is selected from the multiple listings and is designated as a representative listing of the entity. A first request is transmitted to synchronize the representative listing with the entity. Responsive to an indication that a synchronization is complete, a second request is provided to suppress a second listing as a duplicate listing. A confirmation of the second request is received and the suppression of the second listing is verified.
