Someone made a link to a suspicious website edit

I accidentally clicked on the link http://www.allbookez.com/pdf/e1qdo/ on https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bayesian_hierarchical_modeling&oldid=790833442 - the link was labelled as the second one linking supposedly to reference page for Andrew Gelman's Bayesian Data Analysis book. But the link, as one can see is some suspicious link.

I do not know if my computer is damaged by this - but before that, can anyone, any admin, check whether this site does/did cause damages, and edit this page accordingly? 2601:240:8100:708:9C4B:C4EC:49FD:527A (talk) 01:22, 2 August 2017 (UTC)Reply

Why? edit

But the probability of selecting a red ball on the second draw given that the red ball has already been selected in the first draw is 0,...

Why? If we have urn with 2 red balls and 2 blue balls, after first drawing (red ball) urn contains 1 red ball and 2 blue, so probability of next red ball is 1/3, not 0. Jumpow (talk) 09:48, 13 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

Uninterpretable Sentence edit

"The assumed occurrence of a real-world event will typically modify preferences between certain options." No offense intended to the writer, but I don't think anyone can hope to extract any meaning here unless they already know the rest of the topic. I hope someone will fix it up so it has a discernible meaning. For example "the assumed occurrence of a real-world event" means what? There exists an assumption by somebody that a particular real-world event occurred? "...will typically modify..." So now we have that an assumed occurrence, whatever that is, modifies something. What does it modify? "[P]references between certain options." This is now so vague as to be beyond interpretation.Chafe66 (talk) 20:41, 24 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Copy & Pasted content from another page edit

the section "Bayesian nonlinear mixed-effects model" is exact copy from

Nonlinear mixed-effects model - Wikipedia

Should both pages be update with a short description and "Bayesian nonlinear mixed-effects model" have its own page?
