  • Questionable Edits

Two polls repeatedly are being added that are only sourced by a news article. Neither article states what group conducted this poll yet a specific polling group keeps being used for both. Either proper sourcing isn't being done or those editing these polls in have inside knowledge which is not public and therefore which maybe qualify as WP:Vandalism. If these polls are added back in, the conducting organization/s should be stated as 'Unknown' and neither's methodology is known.

What is the point of polling aggregrates?

[edit]

I'm not sure the reasoning behind showing aggregated polls for NE-02. The page is already documenting each poll released in this district and the polling aggregators are excluding some of those polls, meaning they are providing less information to the reader than is already provided.

On top of that, somebody added a row averaging these aggregated polls. I am removing this line as this is an improper use of statistics: there is no scientific reasoning behind averaging two data sets which are themselves averages of a variety of different sample sizes, with some data points existing in both sets. 98.186.205.177 (talk) 16:29, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
