Merger proposal

Huber-White standard errors is the same thing as this, so I propose that the contents of that article be merged into here. (That article is a stub, so it should be pretty easy to do. I don't have the time to do it myself at the moment.) -- Walt Pohl (talk) 07:06, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you should just do this. If there is no additional information, juste make Huber-White page a redirect here. PDBailey (talk) 05:32, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

NO

any article with heteroscedasticity in the title is for a select group of cognoscenti, while huber white is a common name intelligble to a much wider audience.Cinnamon colbert (talk) 12:33, 9 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merger done, with some rewriting of lead. Main stuff transferred was some additional references. Melcombe (talk) 14:05, 23 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Huber

So why is it called HUBER-White standard error? There's no reference on the first guy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.155.146.98 (talk) 15:06, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've just added the seminal reference by Peter J. Huber to the 'References' section. I don't know enough about the history to add anything about his contribution to the article text. Qwfp (talk) 18:52, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
