:: Can you please clarify what you mean about "the category" as the image is not a member of any category.

::--CmdrDan (talk) 21:21, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

:::The category is "General Motors TDH-5106 (7144)." This category only has that one image. -------User:DanTD (talk) 00:04, 1 December 2022 (UTC)

The consortia website says there are 84 members, but the list on the wiki page--which is sourced "2021" contains 86 institutions--Two Too Many.

The consortia list of members:

The wiki article with too many members:

Oberlin Group of Libraries wiki page

Here's the challenge: Using the fewest keystrokes identify the two errant institutions and remove them from the list.

Extra Credit: Enumerate strategies to maintain/synchronize this data.

For your convenience I have created a google sheet that contains the institutions from the two sources above:
