Recently I was looking for a particular letter opener that seemed like a collector's item to me. Searching for "letter opener" gave results in four places:

  • Home Catalog Other Types Letter Opener
  • Home Catalog Other Themes Letter opener
  • Home Catalog Other Objects Letter Opener
  • Home Catalog Stationery Types Letter opener

It also seems as if some objects are in multiple places.

Isn't this an undesirable situation? Can I do something about it myself?

There are currently 53 letter openers in the Other section.
That is under the Object Letter Opener, some of which have a theme as letter opener and others as a type of letter opener.

So it depends on what the importer has assigned as characteristics to the object Letter opener. This is inherent to the Other section.

This is a wiki, if anyone wants to edit an item, you can.

An item on LD is identified by a unique number. Types, Themes and Objects are fields / properties. For example, take 3376383 and you will notice that this number refers 3 times to "Letter opener". If you search, you can do so in 3 ways, but it is not triple in it. So that's normal. It is not normal to have a part in Other and a part in Writing utensils, but you cannot do that yourself, that is for an administrator.

That's right, there are more items (actually all) in Other that will ever need to be transferred. The transfer is a continuous process, but requires a lot of time and attention.
