That's a tough one.
streamline? unify? reduce? trim?
None of those quite fits, though.
English has a number of nouns for the basic concept, including "unique" and "distinct". However, I can't think of (or find online) a verb for that concept.
FWIW (not much, I suspect)

Subject: [xsl] What is a better word for "de-duplication"?
I want to use a single, short word to express the act of removing duplicates from a node-set. I remember seing the word "de-duplication" used, however it sounds ugly.
Could someone suggest a better word, please?
