replies: text: It's maybe not quite so simple: The Oxford Book of Carols (1928) contains the text _as revised by_ the editors.   The New Oxford Book of Carols uses the 1982 version in The Wexford Carols ed. Ô Muirthe, and refers to the 1904 appearance of "four-and-a-half verses" in Old Castleton Christmas Carols (ed. Swahcross).   It would be worth someone's while to do some more checking.   I can report that 1982 has  "But hark how all things come to pass" instead of "But mark right well what came to pass", but that doesn't mean the later is necessarily PD, let alone as old as the 12th century. :-] Sparafucil (talk) 21:31, 19 December 2011 (UTC)

message: This article is about the runza food dish.  The runza was based on the pirozhok and was brought to Nebraska by Volga German immigrants, as explained in the article.

replies: text: Hello!  You have edited this article several times -- here, here, and here -- to turn it more into a promotion or advertisement for the Runza restaurant chain.  That violates the policy explained at What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion.  The basic concept is that this is an encyclopedia, not a commercial platform.  Also, this article is about the food dish, which exists independently of the restaurants.  There's a separate article about the restaurants themselves, which is Runza (restaurant).  That article is an appropriate place for info about the restaurants.  But, there's another potential issue if you have some kind of financial interest in the restaurants.  If you do -- as opposed to being "just a fan" -- you would need to declare that.  I'm not an expert on that but I could help you figure out how, if you want.

Talk:Mean reversion (finance)

message: Is mean reversion falsifiable, and in what sense?  It seems clear to me that, given a measurement at time 0, another measurement at time 1, and a mean, we should be able to determine if mean reversion has occurred.  
For example, let's take the numbers 0-99.  The mean is 49.5.  If we get a measurement of 39 at time 0 and 87 at time 1, then has mean reversion occurred?
I imagine so, because 39 is below the mean, and we expect the next measurement to be higher.  But then 87 is further from the mean than 39 is, so I could just as easily say no.
Perhaps it is just my own fuzzy thinking, but in the absence of a definition to the above method signature (or a reasonable analog), it seems to me that "Mean reversion" is more akin to myth or tautology than insight.
----
Ok, New info, from here: http://www.lmcm.com/pdf/UntanglingSkillandLuck.pdf
This says that reversion to the mean has occurred when t1's radius (distance from mean) is less than t0's radius.  For my earlier example with 39, 87, 49.5, mean reversion *HAS NOT OCCURRED*.  It seems clear that "mean reversion" does not hold for a uniform distribution.  Any previous outcomes regarding radii do not affect the next outcome.  No matter which direction nor which magnitude on the scale, all outcomes are equally likely.
Now, for a normally distributed random variable, mean reversion seems so obvious as to question its very observation.
But ok.  The critical thing is that the phenomenon of mean reversion depends on the random variable's distribution.  Jumping to the guideline of "mean reversion" without having an understanding of the underlying distribution is a mistake.
