Description
Previously, I don't think we've ever been too picky about index values for entries, since RMG doesn't really use them.
However, I was informed that the website has some issues with links in the database, which turned out to be a result of duplicate indices. Basically, the website uses indices as the sole key to retrieve a particular entry, so duplicate indices results in inaccessible entries.
Perhaps we should re-number all of our entries, which would probably mean writing a script to do so.

Research direction
Review the database entries and the website's index-based lookup to identify duplicate indices and confirm which entries are inaccessible. No files or tests are named; the work is done when a script or other agreed process gives entries unique indices and the affected website links can retrieve every entry.
