Conflicting Entries in separate (country) files

Hi @Luinquid! Thank you for your interest in the test lists!

Indeed sometimes the same domains are included in multiple country-specific test lists, but in most cases, it is done on purpose for the domains which are relevant for testing in multiple countries but not worldwide. Usually, it is done to avoid cluttering the global test list, which is being tested by all OONI Probe users in all countries.

For example, in #1274 you can see that we added https://sputniknews.lat/ to 19 different country-specific test lists because this is a media in Spanish that targets countries in Latin America. While we could add it to the global test list, so it would be tested in all countries including these 19, it would take some testing capacity from other countries for which this domain is not relevant (e.g., non-Spanish-speaking countries) and could be critical for some countries where we do not have many measurements.

Regarding the categorization -- thank you for highlighting this! I will create a separate issue and add it here.

Follow-up: inconsistent categorization should be addressed as part of this issue: ooni/backend#611
