==False positive==
I am just wondering what false positive means? [[User:Simply south|Simply south]] ([[User talk:Simply south|talk]]) 21:14, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
:{{cquote|1=A false positive normally means that a test claims something to be positive, when that is not the case. For example, a pregnancy test with a positive result (indicating that the person taking the test is pregnant) has produced a false positive in the case where the person is not pregnant.|4=Wikipedia|5=[[False positive#Type_I_error]]}}
:In the case of ClueBot, a false positive is when ClueBot identifies an edit as vandalism when it is not vandalism. Or, more simply, when ClueBot reverts an edit that isn't vandalism. -- [[User:Cobi|Cobi]]<sup>([[User talk:Cobi|t]]|[[Special:Contributions/Cobi|c]]|[[User:ClueBot Commons/Bots|b]])</sup> 21:42, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
