Overlapping Outpost game entries #738

The problem with Outpost: While the cover art, release year, and IGDB link are from the 1994 game the rest of the page is for a 2023 game also called Outpost. Given how outpost--1 and outpost--2 are in line with IGDB I assume outpost should be Outpost (1994), outpost--3 should be Outpost (2023) and Outpost: Infinity Siege is a duplicate of outpost-infinity-siege.

AFAIK the links do not have to follow the IGDB but no matter what outpost shouldn't be both Outpost (1994) and Outpost (2023) and Infinity Siege should not be duplicated.
I am aware that I could have made 2 change requests but since these are tied and should be handled as one I would have just doubled a lot of my writing. I also assume Change Requests are more for fleshing out the page and not untangling something like this and effectively changing the game some users have in their local database.
