Problem
There is no mechanism to easily flag duplicate entries

Proposed solution
There should be a way for normal users to flag items as duplicates

A button should be visible on the frontend to flag an entry as having a duplicate
This should allow the user to select (somehow? Dropdown?) the item it is the same as
A solution similar to Requesting edits to public entries #181 may be suitable, whereby a "DuplicateFlag" model (or could also just reuse the "ChangeRequest" model) is created and a corresponding view is created for maintainers to manage this, deleting one of the duplicate items.
