Hi @vanBoomClan, it is almost impossible to delete a profile. However, if you are certain the two profiles are for the same individual and they are both marked as deceased, the standard practice is to merge them, preserving the most complete profile and, in this case, discarding the incorrect death date in the process.
Make a note in the reason for merge at the end of the process that one of the death dates was incorrect (including your reasoning for knowing that), and thus discarded. This will help other contributors to understand the changes and hopefully prevent such an error from reoccurring.
If you're unsure of how the merge process works, this article may help.
