Talk:Correlation does not equal causation

Could this article be put in the Logical Fallacy group, under a title such as "The Correlation = Causation Fallacy" --Remarcsd 18:59, 8 October 2007 (EDT)

I agree with the cat, but not the title change. For these reasons:
  1. It is actually what it is called (this phrase is how people bring it up)
  2. "weird" characters in titles can cause unepxected problems. In fact, I think the "=" sign is not permitted. (We had an article with "&" in the title that required database access to delete...)
  3. It is much more likely that someone will type the existing title as a link in an article or talk.
I'll check the cat and see if I can go add it to the logical fallacy article. humanbe in 21:22, 8 October 2007 (EDT)
