[Google] Duplicate content

Hello All,

Ive asked into google forums, when i go to Webmaster Tools says that i have duplicate content etc...

The reason for this is - renaming stats -> details.
Also google displays very old links ( users ) wich dont exist anymore, they are deleted from Admin panel

Anyone could help how can i fix this problems :
1. How to fix this duplicate content
2. How to remove old URLs from google WMTools wich dont exist
 
1. all old links have a 301 redirect header. Over time google will update it
2. yea this isnt handled very good. We need to issue a 404 not found on non existant users, which currently is not there, just a simple message.
About remoing them, i dont use webmaster tools so often, but i think somewhere you can issue a "remove from search" of some sort
 
2. I am adding this to the todo list so we will add handling removed users to the next version.
 
Most of the URLs comming from old change

/stats/ to /details/

Ive done some re-search in Google WMT, they said 301 redirect old urls to new urls
 
as Basti mentioned above, 301 redirects are already in place for all of those
