There was a little discussion when this article was posted here three weeks ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1807527

(OT: under what circumstances are duplicate submissions allowed? There's nothing in the FAQ or the Guidelines.)

Interesting… I didn't bother searching for a previous discussion as I was under the impression that when you submit a URL that was already submitted you were simply taken to that page and upvoted it.

I think this is what should happen, or at least the duplication should be noted to the poster before they commit their new entry.
