Nice side project, but it seems there are a lot of duplicate profiles, just to name a few:

a search of "Albert Einstein" returned 3

Niels Bohr: 4

Stephen Hawking: 3

Richard Feynman: 2

Lennard Jones: 2

linus pauling: 2

Thanks for pointing it out, we're working on implementing a "merge profile" feature. Once completed, duplicate profiles can easily be merged into one.
