Petition updateCode of Conduct for all Pagan events & organisationsNearly to 200 - can we get to 500 ?

I just found this Wild Hunt article from 2014, which describes the Pagan community's reaction to Kenny Klein's arrest, and also the boycott of SF events which didn't have a code of conduct.
(A bit of context for anyone who was baffled about where the boycott idea came from - I'm following the SF playbook)
"In the world of science fiction and fantasy, over 500 presenters, artists, attendees, and vendors have joined best selling author John Scalzi in announcing they will not attend, present, or vend at conferences that do not have, or will not enforce, written harassment policies."

We are very nearly at 200 signatories, which is really encouraging - a bit more sharing of this petition and we might get to 500. Can you share the petition, tweet it, or - even better - blog about it?
ENTHUSIASTIC CONSENT
Another great article that's worth sharing is this one about enthusiastic consent.
Two great take-aways from this article:
“Consent is always conditional on participants’ ability to revoke their consent.”
and
"You must be in control of, and able to revoke, your consent at all times for that consent to remain valid."

CONSENT AND TEA
Finally, in case you haven't seen it, I think the concept of consent to cups of tea explains consent really well.
