    $\begingroup$ The different definitions of parameters and their scaling used in different libraries is a common source of confusion. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 30, 2017 at 3:31

    $\begingroup$ I wouldn't expect that both Gung and I would get this wrong. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 30, 2017 at 6:10

    $\begingroup$ Yes, both of you got it wrong. Your reasons for rejecting my edit make it clear that both of you didn't see my comment "Missing factor of 1/N" at stats.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/139985 $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 30, 2017 at 8:04
  • $\begingroup$ Your edit was probably rejected because it changed much more than only what you claim. If youd like to edit my post and only change the missing factor, please do, but changing my links and wording and code as well is overkill. The comments about your unfair treatment in your answer are innapropriate, and unrelated to the content of the question, please remove them. Your wording also plagarized my answer, this is not the right way to respond to a rejected edit. We would love your valuable contributions to our community, but please aquaint yourself with our norms before eviscerating us. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 31, 2017 at 16:53

    $\begingroup$ @visitor Sorry if I came off a bit gruff. I really should just be trying to communicate that you seem like a good potential contributor to the site, and I want you to have a good experience. We have some social norms, just like any other group, and you will have a better experience if you stay aware of them. I still think "Matthew Drury's answer is wrong" is quite harsh, there are surely better ways to communicate that my answer is erroneously missing a factor of $\frac{1}{N}$. "X's answer is wrong" reads as a personal attack. $\endgroup$ Commented Mar 31, 2017 at 20:41
