Motivations for inventing this conspiracy theory
Someone add possible motivations for this conspiracy theory, possibly to divert attention from Trump facing a child rape case at the time, Trump admitting to sexual assault, Trump admitting to walking in on underage girls (some as young as 15), Epstein's employee pleading the fifth when asked about Trump and so on.

 * I doubt there's any effort by Trumpists to divert attention away from things Trump does. I think whatever he does or says is OK with them. Motivations for propagating a conspiracy theory would not all be the same anyway. Some (the majority I think) pushed it simply for trollish lulz. Some pushed it to feed the hate for all things Clinton. (Bear in mind this all started 30 years ago with the birth of right wing talk radio. A whole industry devoted to demonizing the Clintons flourished, led by Limbaugh and others. I tuned in the local right wing radio show the other day, and the rhetoric was pretty much the same as it was in the late 1990s. Callers saying the Clintons need to be jailed for rape, murder and treason, etc.) And some people pushed it for money; i.e. clicks and pageviews. Oh and don't forget sheer stupidity.

 * It seems plausible that this conspiracy theory could have been promoted to distract attention from the real conspiracy scandal - i.e. pro-Trump interference by Russia in the election. Mainstream Trump supporters (who didn't buy into the Pizzagate nonsense) are equating the two things & saying that the Trump-Russia connection is the left's Pizzagate, despite the CIA's findings.  00:16, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
 * No doubt Pizzagate has been leveraged for political purposes by some, if not many, Trump supporters. And yes, diversion could be a motivation for promoting it. But my view is that it wasn't "invented" and coordinated with that single purpose in mind. Leuders (talk) 18:00, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

How far to silver?
Ideas? Reverend Black Percy (talk) 10:49, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Lose its stub status and it would be close/there. 20:48, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
 * But it's not a stub? Reverend Black Percy (talk) 23:42, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Then the article needs to reflect this by not having the stub template. 00:01, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

Been trying to write this page to silver today
I hope this was useful. And I hope anyone has the power of Greyskull to help. It's not got all that far to go, and there really are a lot of great sources to consult, especially now that the dust has settled. Reverend Black Percy (talk) 19:47, 28 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I think it deserves it now. 18:34, 18 February 2017 (UTC)

This email
I found this email linked here:

According to conspiracy nuts, this is in code, however, it seems more likely someone tampered with the email to make it cryptic or something, I dunno. 17:48, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
