    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by one or more computing devices of an online social network, from a client system of a first user of the online social network, a query inputted by the first user. The method further includes accessing a social graph of the online social network, the social graph including multiple nodes and multiple edges connecting the nodes, each node corresponding to an entity associated with the online social network. The method also includes identifying multiple entities matching the query, each identified entity having a duplication-value with respect to a canonical-entity, the duplication-values being based on a name similarity between the identified entity and the canonical-entity. The method also includes suppressing one or more entities of the identified entities based on the duplication-value of the entity and social-graph information associated with the entity.
