When editing a user contact, i.e. a contact assigned to a user, there are the following peculiarities:
•Under the fields of the 'Change contact' action form, in case of discrepancies, those entries are displayed in green that the user himself has made in his personal profile for the corresponding field. His/her username is added in brackets.
•Select the [Match with original] button to apply the values of the assigned user for one or more fields.
•Select [Edit] to continue with the usual editing of the contact.
•If you want to turn the user contact into an original contact in order to have the user data currently available in the contact at all times, select [Replace with original].

When you delete your own original contact in the Trash, you also remove it from other address books and contact lists. In this case, you will receive a corresponding warning message. Otherwise, deleting contacts has no effect on other address books or the membership status of those users whose entries have been deleted.
