It's 9 Consensus with a 14 vote lead.

I haven't voted, but is that not good enough?

[up][up]I'm pretty sure the consensus range for both TRS and IP is in the double digits.

We might want to wait at least three days after the crowner was hooked to ask for it to be called, even though the crowner was made last month.

Calling in favor of renaming. Now, let's think of some names.

Laconic is "Making up something for an unwanted third party to go somewhere else."

False Request As Distraction? Something like that.

I'd like to apologize for all this.

Shoo Out The Witness or something?

Send Off To A Distraction?

Send Off To Distraction? For being just a bit shorter...

I thought there was a Shoo Out The Children redirect or something, but I think I'm mistaken...

[up]I agree.

As for name suggestions, both Shoo Out The Witness and False Request As Distraction sound good; I'm leaning toward the former. Alternatively, maybe Shooing Out The Witness if Shoo Out The Witness sounds too dialogue-like.

[up][up] - Note. That was a deliberate ref to Shoo Out the Clowns and Shoo Out the New Guy, then there's Shoo the Dog...

[up] Consensus range is 2:1 or better.

Giving it a couple more days before safely calling it.

Looks like it'll be Privacy by Distraction. Calling.

I'll start the move tomorrow.

Okay, move done.

Only 381 wicks; I already cut the old redirect (Crummies) for being unclear.

[up] It looks like a generic We Need a Distraction since this is done to prevent interference with a mission rather than for privacy. And Go Look At The Distraction should be retargeted there after cleanup.
