Possible bug in Crawl Issues report?

Hi all -
My crawl issues report shows 3 pages with missing titles. These are just google verification files and the robot.txt file - shouldn't these be excluded?
Pages with Title Missing or Emptyas of May 11

Wow that is interesting. Thanks for the info and direction Lynn. I will look into that.

Hi Matthew,
I think you will find that those urls are included in your sitemap.xml and that is why they are being crawled. They are also being indexed by google - you can search for the name of the verification files and they show up in the results. Remove them from the sitemap and you should be ok!

Duplicate Content & Title Tag Group Fields on MoZ Report
Hello, On my SEO MOZ exported Site Crawl CSV report, I have columns for Duplicate Content Group & for Duplicate Title Tag Group. The values in the columns are numerical - 20, 5 , 15, etc. Can anyone explain to me what these values represent and how I can fix the issues I presume they represent? Thank you,

Crawl Diagnostics: How many pages (deep) will it crawl for dup content
Does anyone know how deep the crawl diagnostics will crawl when searching for dup content? Will it crawl the entire site, or will it only crawl "x" amount of pages? Thanks!

I'm checking keyword difficulty for two different sites. Would love to view the results by site instead of just one large list. Is that possible? Or would it just be easier to keep the lists separate in Excel and just import when I want an updated report?
I have keyword lists for two sites. Is there a way to label them in the keyword difficulty tool (List A, List B) so I can just view results for a particular site? Or do I need to run the report with List A, export results, delete those keywords, then run the report for List B?

Way has the number of pages crawled plummeted?
Why has the number of pages crawled for our campaign plummeted in Moz Analytics – down to 729 from over 10k? Don't see any issues in Google Analytics with crawling our site.

I requested a new crawl, this was done but my dashboard only shows the crawl done last week?
We recently moved our old website to a new CMS and structure. there have been some configuration errors and I needed to make some changes with things like canonical url's etc. However I need to check if these changes have made a difference and requested a new crawl through the crawl test page. I was emailed each time that a new crawl had been done but my reporting and dashboards still only show data from the last scheduled crawl. Regards Chris
