The link on "confidence" near the end of the article references a political stub, when the subject is statistical confidence.

Provably?

Well, I really have to admit that I don't know what "provably" (not "probably") means. Perhaps adding a small note to explain what it means, or a link to an article that does, is in order?

It's the adverb of "provable", which means "there is a proof". Do you not know what a proof is, or did you not understand the flexion? It looks like a perfectly normal word to me, and there's over a million Google hits for it... Unfortunately, I don't know how to avoid this word without losing clarity. --84.59.189.46 19:42, 7 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
