* '''Hatnote''' at Cumulative distribution function pointing to probability density function, and option '''A'''. The current (helpful!) disambig doesn't lecture the reader; the only complaint that can be levelled against it is that it falls foul of [[WP:2DABS]], and the 2DABS argument is that if there are only two targets, they ''should'' be dealt with by hat-notes instead, so merely redirecting without a hat-note is a very poor choice. Most readers may be looking for CDF, but we shouldn't make personal assumptions or ignore the minority who were aiming for PDF.

**'''Comment''' Such a hatnote wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, but I really don't see the need for it. I doubt this is a common error. It's just not particularly plausible that someone would type "cumulative" when thinking of the PDF. --[[User:Trovatore|Trovatore]] ([[User talk:Trovatore|talk]]) 20:40, 23 April 2025 (UTC)
*'''Comment''' Is there any evidence that "cumulative density function" has ever meant anything else than "cumulative distribution function", anywhere? —[[User:St.nerol|St.Nerol]] ([[User talk:St.nerol|talk]], [[Special:Contributions/St.nerol|contribs]]) 20:25, 24 April 2025 (UTC)
