+## Patch suborganizations
+This script deletes some duplicate suborganization data that exists in our database (one-time use).
+It works in two ways:
+1. If the only name difference between two suborg records is extra spaces or a capitalization difference,
+then we delete all duplicate records of this type.
+2. If the suborg name is one we manually specify to delete via the script.
+
+Before it deletes records, it goes through each DomainInformation and DomainRequest object and updates the reference to "sub_organization" to match the non-duplicative record.
