We've already made it clear that m0 represents the number of true null hypotheses. Tag: Undo

• 08:2808:28, 28 December 2023 diff hist −332‎ Bonferroni correction ‎ Undid revision 1192119300 by DMH43 (talk) Calling the Bonferroni procedure "overly conservative" is a controversial claim. And since it's the most commonly used multiple-comparisons adjustment, it's hard to justify the statement that it's "typically" perceived as overly conservative, even if you can find opinion pieces complaining about its conservatism.

I've revised the statement to be a bit more qualified. The Chinese government and affiliated parties have a well established pattern of making dubious claims about things being supposed cultural attacks and demanding people apologize (e.g., see the egg fried rice controversy).
• 17:5717:57, 2 December 2023 diff hist −7‎ Statistical hypothesis test ‎ →‎The testing process: Restored simpler, clearer, more straightforward and intuitive way of writing the two-sided null hypothesis. Another editor said '"exact" equality or inequality have no place in statistical reasoning'. But there is no basis for that claim, I'm not sure what "exact" inequality is even supposed to mean, and the editor's preferred way of writing the formula is mathematically equivalent anyway.

• 17:5617:56, 4 November 2023 diff hist −43‎ Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees ‎ It's absurd to say an opinion about nameless children having contempt in their hearts is a "sourced" statement of fact.

• 16:4616:46, 4 November 2023 diff hist −726‎ Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees ‎ Undid revision 1183355993 by Sandstein (talk) It is absolutely not appropriate to assume that children singing a song have contempt. And it is absolutely not true that the claim is supported by sources. Even if you find a book where an author says so, that's still an opinion, not a fact. This is an encyclopedia, not a blog. If opinions are referenced they should be identified as such, not presented as factual information. Tags: Undo Reverted references removed

• 16:5116:51, 30 September 2023 diff hist −782‎ Chinese, Japanese, dirty knees ‎ Removed some POV and unencyclopedic language (which falsely depicted the chant as primarily used to express contempt for Asian children) while still acknowledging the offensive elements of the chant. Also removed the movie reference which didn't seem related at all. Connecting the movie's dad-joke pun about "Chi-knees" to a nonsense chant that happens to rhyme "Chinese" with "knees" seems like a pretty big stretch and wasn't supported by references anyway.

• 08:4208:42, 31 August 2023 diff hist +1‎ MC Lyte ‎ Not sure why "female" was changed to "woman." If no underage girl rapper and no grown woman rapper released a solo album before her, then the word "female" is appropriate to cover both of those.
