I agree. I'm guessing from the name that it's meant to be "character asks others to pretend they weren't present for an event". The examples seem to be leaning towards meaning "making a character an Un-person".
Accidental mistakes are forgivable, intentional ones are not.

The self-demonstration of this page looks like Implausible Deniability mixed with Suspiciously Specific Denial. It is annoying. Would it be appropriate to move this to the self-demonstrating namespace and create a clear explanation of the trope on this one?
