Straw poll on the move of Category:Estimation to Category:Estimation theory[edit]

Please add comments in the Move discussion section not in the Reasons or Votes sections. Sign and date all comments, using the Wikipedia special form "~~~~", which translates into a signature and a time stamp automatically.

Reasons[edit]

"Estimation" can mean many things, and this category (as the contents stand) is primarily about estimation theory (a branch of statistics) and not the other forms of estimation. At some point, I intend on merging the relevant content from estimation to my recently creation estimation theory. Cburnett 20:51, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)
