Hi, I wrote a hub about social dancing and the types of dances.
Then I wrote a hub about dancing in San Diego and the different venues.
The first has nothing to do with the second. The first is about the types of dancing. The second is about dancing venues in a specific city
The hub says it duplicate. What must I do? How do I fix it?
First are you sure that it is that first hub that is the duplicate?
Type in some phrases from the 'duplicate' hub into Google and see what comes back - maybe someone has copied it elsewhere, or by co-incidence it is very similar to another article.
Someone more knowledgeable than me will be along shortly I am sure.

Copy and past your article in the box and hit enter.. that should tell you what phrases are duplicates or near duplicates.
You have written the same article on Associated Content. Hubpages require you to write unique content here. You can take the same article and rewrite it to get rid of the duplicate warning.
I did rewrite it and there weren't two words the same. It still came up duplicte.
So I've deleted it.
What I will do is wait until tomorrow and reload it.
Undelete it now. It just takes a few hours or days for the duplicate cache to update
Oh, you mean it's a duplicate to another article on the web? Yes, it is. I've got hundreds of articles on the web. Some I've even forgotten exist. Okay, I just have to rewrite some more. Didn't do enough of a rewrite job.
thanks.

If I have an article on another website. but I rewrite it and give it a different title, does it count as a new article? I have changed about 1/4 of it. Thank you.

Usually totally unrelated or even totally unlike your Hub, they will show a large list. The message will say we, think that your Hub might be a duplicate of one of the below.I know mine are mine and just go straight to the box at bottom, and swear originality. I just can't figure, that half the...

I have never had this happen to me but I noticed today that I had a hub unpublished because of duplicate content it says... The written content in the hub is NOT duplicate. I wrote it myself. It does have photos in it that are probably other places like Pinterest etc... but this has...

The reason is probably, because I have posted them on my blog as well as hubpages. Or is there another reason for it?

I notice several disgruntled Hubbers on Eric's new Hub, saying they're leaving HubPages because of the duplicate content flags.They seem to be misunderstanding what the dup content flag is all about - either they think they're being penalized, or that the flag means they have to delete the Hub.I...
