Probability paradoxes or counter-intuitive problems
I published an article in Chance ( https://www.tandfonline.com/eprint/N2ZHDVNZTCGQBQWTN5ZQ/full?target=10.1080/09332480.2024.2415844) citing flawed reasoning in these types of problems: they ask for the probability of an outome of an event that has occurred but answer with the probability of that outcome before the event has occurred. I edited Bertrand's box paradox - Wikipedia with the correct answer. But since the correct answer contradicts a history of the classical answer, my editing violates the Wikipedia:Verifiability#Exceptional claims require exceptional sourcing. How do I address that (if possible0 to correct what's currently in Wikipedia?
Thank you for any help. Kicab (talk) 16:04, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
- @Kicab, I think you changed the problem, hence got a different answer. See the Bertrand Box article talk page. Richard Gill (talk) 11:43, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
Planetary impact image
I have raised a dispute about the factual accuracy of an image (or more precisely its caption) used in a number of places. Please consider commenting at talk:Torino scale#Normal distribution. --Trovatore (talk) 21:48, 6 February 2025 (UTC)
Confidence interval
I’ve tried to improve the opening passages of Confidence interval. I hope I succeeded. Richard Gill (talk) 10:59, 16 February 2025 (UTC)
