How to delete the same kernel?
Hello, I am new to Fedora. After some installations I've got two same kernels of same versions. They are displayed on GRUB startup and Package List. How can I clean up one?

No, you do not have two kernels with same version: one is 4.18.8, the other is 4.18.9.
I would strongly advise not to delete the second (older) kernel. In case something doesn’t work with the other one, you will be happy to have a fallback kernel installed.
Here is a neat
rpmquery command to check whatkernelpackages you have installed:rpm -qa kernel. (shows the kernel meta package only, if you want to see all, runrpm -qa kernel-*)
