 ===Definition(s)===
   - Uniqueness of data records is the degree to which [[data_concept:data record|data records]] occur only once in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]].\\
-  - Uniqueness of the appearance of an object in a data file is the degree to which [[data_concept:object|objects]] (in the real world) occur only once as a [[data_concept:data record|data record]] in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]].\\
+  - Uniqueness of the mapping of an object in a data file is the degree to which [[data_concept:object|objects]] (in the real world) occur as one [[data_concept:data record|data record]] in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]].\\
   - Uniqueness of primary keys is the degree to which [[data_concept:primary key|primary keys]] occur only once in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]].
-===Note(s)===
+===Note===
-In general, duplicates should be deduplicated.
+In general, double [[data_concept:data record|data records]] should be deduplicated.
 ===Relation(s)===
-Uniqueness can be a [[data_quality_dimension:characteristic|characteristic]] of [[data_concept:data record|data records]], the appearance of [[data_concept:object|objects]] in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]] or [[data_concept:primary key|primary keys]].

 ===Example(s)===
-  - This article appears twice in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]] under the same article number. This is the easiest to detect.\\
+  - This article appears twice in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]] under the same article number. This is easy to detect by checking on double article numbers.\\
-  - This article appears twice in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]] under a different article number. This can only be discovered by comparison of other fields than the article number.\\
+  - This article appears twice in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]] under a different article number. This can only be discovered by comparison of other [[data_concept:data element|data elements]] than the article number.\\
-  -  Two different articles appear  under the same article number in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]]. This can only be discovered by checking double article numbers and then compare other fields than article number.
+  -  Two different articles appear  under the same article number in a [[data_concept:data file|data file]]. This can only be discovered by checking double article numbers and then compare other  [[data_concept:data element|data elements]] than article number before deduplicating.
