- that is WP:OR; you need a good source discussing it that way, to even start a discussion. Jytdog (talk) 00:18, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
Correct citation for "Some important contributors to the field of experimental designs are "
editWould the correct citation for the sentence "Some important contributors to the field of experimental designs are ... " be to a highly cited paper of each person's work or to a paper discussing their contributions? --- Jadeizaguirre (talk) 01:32, 29 January 2018 (UTC)
Multifactorial experiments should link to the info like the other sections.
editThis section refers to Factorial experiments so it should link there. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorial_experiment 2603:6011:2D00:4100:98F6:9046:D675:A25E (talk) 03:17, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
Please: improve the introduction
editThe problem with DoE is that the majority doesn't know what it is even about. It's one of the most important tools in science and engineering but has near to zero engagement because experts usually overcomplicate concepts that are in their core easy. Just because they can, or because they are bad teachers, or because they want to sound smart. Very frequently.
Take the German article as an example https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistische_Versuchsplanung. They show a very intuitive plot (it would be even better to put an example next to "Factor 1", "Factor 2", etc.). Explain why DoE needs to be done, explain the concept of design space. Explain the concept of levels and factors and name a brief example without going into detail.
Getting sick of counterintuitive literature in the STEM field. Why overcomplicate things? 2A02:8071:888:90A0:598B:7FBC:D12A:7D2F (talk) 14:42, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
