    @judiqp, Depends, is the source record attached to the correct person or to an incorrect person? If correctly attached, mark the hint as Not A Match. If the Hint is attached to the wrong person, Detach it from the incorrect person and attach it to the correct person. A third possibility is that the two different PIDs are of the same individual (duplicates), in that case you would Merge the two and the Hint should go away.
