Statistical

 If  anyone from Wikipedia read the blog post Wikipedia then wishfully they're aware that knowledge is being lost from the site.

A decision will need to be made on addressing the problem once that sinks in.

Statistical Significance - Hopefully that's one topic that hasn't been clobbered in that respect.

In terms of auditing and tracking any type of transaction....  Unless we're capturing the right indicators and data points to evaluate statistical significance it's impossible to know whether something was accidental or followed a pattern.

It may be nearly impossible to distinguish between those two options either way.

One is just the other backwards.
