Thanks Lydia!

"conflation" Q13946528 would be good enough as a "flag" for a candidate to split.
I will just use that for now.

Hey Thad :)

I don't think I've seen requests for it and I'm not aware of an
existing workflow to request a split. I assume most of the time people
who find an Item that's mixed up fix it themselves so far. Some people
are marking them as "instance of: Q14946528" so they can be found.


Cheers
