 * Hi,
 * We imported 1200+ posts into our WP site, but something went wrong with some 
   of the posts (think duplicate posts).
 * So now we have ~600 posts that we would like to delete again.
 * Is that somehow possible without deleting them one at the time or similar.
 * We have the slugs of all the posts we want to delete, so does anyone know of 
   some SQL we can use?
 * Thanks,
    Mads

 * Where are the slugs? Do you have them in a file? What format?
