    You can delete it through the dashboard in the post and check the articles that are not desirable

    I don't think there is any plugin but you can go to your dashboard & delete the all posts which you want to delete is is very simple.

    Hi Friends,

    Go on Admin Panel then click on All posts and remove that post you want.

    Hi There,
    you can open your dashboard and select all pages or post, click on that you will see your page and post.
    then you can delete you post from there. if you need more information you can send me your email id and i will send you some snapshot.

    Hi, Search free plugins on wordpress site. There is one called Delete Duplicate posts (funnily enough?!) it will remove all youre duplicates and you can set it to run automatically. I use it on autoblogs to keep the dupes at zero!

    It really depends on how duplicates they are I think, doing it manually would be safer, indeed mysql queries are the fastest method I guess, that plugin only check for duplicate titles so I think it is not that accurate, for an automation of this there would need a tool to compare the % of similiraty between posts, something like copyscape between your posts, maybe with an external api this could be done, otherwise it would be just too resource intensive
