As a co-author I would like to move this BIP's status to Closed due to its current irrelevance and lack of any known deployments on the network.

If I could I would delete it fully, or better yet go back in time to prevent it from being written.

Update bip-0343.mediawiki

You'll need to update the README as well.

Per BIP 3: A BIP may evolve from Deployed to Closed when it is no longer in active use. Any community member may initiate this Status update by announcing it to the mailing list[^bip-announcements-to-list], and proceed if no objections have been raised for four weeks.

It might be a good idea to announce this proposed change to the mailing list.

Shinobi would not refer to himself as Shi_t_nobi, so I doubt that this is actually him.

I also don’t think it would be useful to notify the mailing list about a metadata change to a BIP specifying alternate deployment parameters for Taproot, more than four years since Taproot activated.

I think it’s reasonable to move this BIP to closed, because it’s no longer relevant, but I don’t think this PR is a serious attempt.

@Shitnobi: I fixed the table entry and added a minimal Changelog to record the reason it was moved to Closed. Please let me know if that looks right to or feel free to amend it to your preference.

Looks good to me, much appreciated Murch.
