Talk:Bayes' theorem

I'm thinking we can leave most of the discussion of probability to Wikipedia. There might be more to say about Bayes as it applies to rationality but that might be best shoved in a separate article, like Bayesian or something. Also, I couldn't actually find any OB or LW articles directly about Bayes' theorem, as opposed to Bayesian rationality--if anyone can think of one, please add it.

I'd rather go for one article than break out a separate one for Bayesian - we can start splitting things out if the articles start to grow too long. Paul Crowley (ciphergoth) 22:58, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

I added what I thought was the minimal technical information. I lean towards keeping separate concepts separate, even if the articles are sparse. If someone else feels it would be worthwhile to combine them though, go ahead. BJR 23:07, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

I really would prefer to keep the maths and statistics separate from the more nebulous day-to-day rationality stuff, especially since Wikipedia already does an excellent job of covering the former, while the latter is much more OB/LW-specific. A soulless automaton 21:59, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
