Problems

Thank you for making it a stub, but the contributor has been making all sorts of odd entries today. We have deleted this once already. In any case, I predict vandalism. Or maybe not. --PaulinSaudi 14:06, 12 May 2004 (UTC)]]

I predict copyvio because of this sentence, "A dialogue with Mycin is somewhat like the mini dialogue we gave in section 5.3..." it refers to a section 5.3 and I can not seem to find any such section in the article. --Jaberwocky6669 00:03, Dec 31, 2004 (UTC)

This article is copied word for word from http://www.cee.hw.ac.uk/~alison/ai3notes/section2_5_5.html, as the "source" link at the bottom of it suggests. Highly doubt that this is permissible - this appears to be one chapter from http://www.cee.hw.ac.uk/~alison/ai3notes/all.html "Databases and Artificial Intelligence 3 - Artificial Intelligence Segment" by Alison Cawsey, a lecturer in the School of Mathematical and Computer Sciences at Heriot Watt University. Recommend review. --RidG 02:41, 31 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Usefulness

"...and only slightly worse than those physicians who were themselves experts in the field (average correct diagnosis rate of about 80%)."

Surely a differential in recognition rates of 15% is not a "slight" difference? --86.139.39.232

Apparently it was. My guess is that it turned out to not be flexible enough, but nobody wanted to say so. --maru (talk) contribs 19:55, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Comprehensibility

Ok this article makes no sense to me, as a layman. I don't even understand what the article is describing. Is it some sort of computer system?? --Taco325i 13:21, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Yes. --maru (talk) contribs 19:55, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Evidence combination referencing

Hi all the section on evidence combination is entirely based on reference 4. Should I have put the 4 in more places or is what I have done enough? EvilxFish (talk) 20:16, 30 October 2016 (UTC)
