Deliberate mistake: Steve is not superhuman, but he could see and almost (Diana whips it out of the way first) dodge a bullet at the beginning of the car chase. (01:21:55)
Deliberate mistake: When Diana and Steve visit the Mayan guru hideout, they find an issue of Pro Wrestling Illustrated with Jerry Lawler on the cover. It's the August 1984 issue though, that couldn't be there since it's still early July. The prop department knew what they were doing there though; if you look at the cover, you can see they modified it and it actually says July 1984. (01:29:40)
Answer: At this point in time, her gig as a superhero is not public knowledge, and she wants it to stay that way.

How would that accomplish anything considering there were many people in the mall who saw what happened?
It really wouldn't, but then again, the writers didn't put much thought into this movie.

As the other answer indicated, Diana/Wonder Woman wasn't yet known publicly as a super-hero. A video recording is different from eye-witness accounts of what people actually saw or believe they saw. Memories are faulty, they fade, and everyone sees and remembers things differently. Regarding the child, I interpreted it as Diana just motioning in a friendly way for the rather precocious girl to stay put, behave, and quietly wait for her mother.

In my opinion, it wouldn't, and it's just another example of the shoddy writing in this film.
