- 12:2912:29, 28 July 2024 diff hist −250 Bonferroni correction →Background: Sine application to confidence intervals is described in the "extensions" section, there's no need to also mention it in the "background" section. current

- 06:4306:43, 15 July 2024 diff hist +17 Power (statistics) Some minor rewording for clarity. Also, not necessary to say it "ranges from 0 o 1," since that's obviously true of any probability.

- 10:1910:19, 3 July 2024 diff hist +2 Bonferroni correction Undid revision 1232359079 by 172.91.107.147 (talk) On second thought, I was assuming that the probability of significance in an adjusted test is exactly equal to the adjusted alpha level. It could be lower for some kinds of tests. That is, Pr(p<alpha/m) could be less than alpha/m. As you were.. Tag: Undo
- 10:1410:14, 3 July 2024 diff hist −2 Bonferroni correction Undid revision 1231527801 by 128.23.128.26 (talk) **The sum of the probability that all the p values for true nulls are significant** is the same as **the number of true nulls times the probability that one p value for a true null is significant**. Therefore, the operator should be an equal sign, not less-than-equal. There appears to be a typo in the source. Tags: Undo Reverted

- 20:5020:50, 10 June 2024 diff hist −108 Confidence interval →Optimality: Removed weird statement saying we could throw away half the data set. The description of optimalit, which (like the rest of the "Desired Properties" section) is completely unscourced, still seems dubious to me. Defining optimality as using as much info as possible conflicts with defining optimality as giving you a

- 04:0404:04, 9 June 2024 diff hist −164 Confidence interval →Problems: I agree with the editor who said framing these as "counterexamples" is weird. Better to describe them as examples of how naive interpretation of CIs can fail.
- 03:4903:49, 9 June 2024 diff hist −125 Beat (acoustics) →Mathematics and physics of beat tones: Removed unclear, potentially confusing statement about the human ear only hearing the magnitude of a wave. Also clarified that the beat frequency isn't always in the audible range. current
- 03:4403:44, 9 June 2024 diff hist −453 Beat (acoustics) →Mathematics and physics of beat tones: I searched the cited source (https://www.animations.physics.unsw.edu.au/jw/beats.htm) for the 12 hz benchmark and couldn't find it anywhere. In any case, the claim was highly dubious, since 12 hz is way below the range of human hearing.

- 00:0300:03, 3 June 2024 diff hist +21 Bonferroni correction →Criticism: It's important to clarify that the criticism applies to multiple-testing adjustments in general. Otherwise, the criticism is potentially highly misleading. Imagine saying that a particular brand of cigarettes has been criticized for increasing cancer risk—without mentioning that the same problem applies to all other brands of cigarettes also.

- 19:5119:51, 23 March 2024 diff hist +199 Histogram Clarified the key distinctions between histograms and bar charts. Saying a bar chart shows "categorical variables" is potentially misleading. Each bar does represent a different category, but the heights of the bars are quantitative.

- 08:5908:59, 12 March 2024 diff hist +11 Family-wise error rate Corrected apostrophe placement in "Holm's". Also, clarified Tukey's position regarding experimentwise control. The previous phrasing gave the misleading impression that Tukey was generally opposed to experimentwise error control, rather than that he suggested familywise control was preferable in the case that an experiment included multiple families.
