Demographics and Contacts - Phone Number Labels
Phone numbers: Remove all references to "home", "mobile", or "cellular" phone number. These words are not needed anymore.

I find many duplicate cell/mobile numbers in the "Telephone" field for CONTACTS.
Would you consider changing the field label to "Landline?" And/Or have validation for phone fields to only have a number occur once in any of the phone fields for each contact?

Yes, instead make the labels generic, with a numbering scheme, Phone 1, phone 2, phone 3. Phone 1 is the primary number the contact wants to reached on first, etc.

Phone number with a dropdown box to indicate type of phone would be even better - we have an issue with people entering their cell phone number three times! But we use communications, so still need to have something that identifies cell phone numbers for texting.
