Abstract
A source system receives an indication to suppress a listing associated with an entity, wherein the indication is based at least in part on a confidence score from the source system indicating that the listing is a duplicate of a representative listing. A list of a provider systems that provide search results including the listing associated with the entity is identified. A first provider system is searched for a first listing matching the listing associated with the entity. The source system receives from the first provider system, a provider-supplied external identifier associated with the first listing. A request to suppress is transmitted to the first listing from a search result generated in response to a search request submitted via the first provider system.
