 * Delete - not only do we already have articles on Causality and Association, there's also one on Correlation does not imply causation, so all bases are well covered. If there is anything to add to these three (I suspect it's mainly an issue of differences of culture and language, statistician-speak may not be scientist-speak or medic-speak) then it can certainly go into one of the existing articles. In other words, it's a WP:CONTENTFORK. Chiswick Chap (talk) 23:21, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
 * By the way, it may be worth adding hatnotes and 'See also's to help stop this happening again. Quite so often. Chiswick Chap (talk) 23:24, 29 November 2011 (UTC)
