Example plots need more explanation[edit]

The top one should explain what the positions/length/ends of the two lines in each plot represent; and the lower one should explain what the white region inside each coloured plot represents (is it another narrower violin plot ?). - Rod57 (talk) 17:40, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Comprehensibility[edit]

This is about the worst explanation I have ever read. It describes the violin plot using technical terms that no one would understand unless they were so educated that they should already know what a violin plot was.

Explanations should FIRST be understandable by high school graduates, then (if necessary) a more accurate explanation should be given. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:2000:704B:900:E1B5:6003:404:7A98 (talk) 13:17, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Dead link[edit]

In the external links, The Examples of a violin plot in R is a dead link. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.112.93.54 (talk) 14:50, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

too much redundancy[edit]

As far as I can see: the second, third and fourth paragraphs are 3 independent attempts at explanation. To me, they simply clutter the article. A lot of redundancy can be removed there, and I will probably attempt it over the next couple of days. Adpete (talk) 05:40, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Mirrored Density plot[edit]

This looks more like a shamless-plug than an actual interesting information. There are constantly countless of papers published on improvements of current methods in every possible field. The current paper this is linking to has only 23 citation according to Google-Scholar. Far from being wide accepted method. I think this part should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A10:8005:3277:0:FD31:C100:9602:AEEB (talk) 08:17, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Will remove and ask for more established papers. This is an encyclopedia synthetizing the current state of knowledge, not a repository of the latest research. Limit-theorem (talk) 13:09, 23 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
