interesting

It very interesting that in page with software information are added such chapters like Certifications, 2 direct links to web-site and the page is written using " It is best known for its...". May be user tesimonials should be also published? :( See history of this page. Where is it "best" known? Who decides it? The page is written by author & seller of this software. And I dislike it. Author & seller ever doesn't create own page, no information is available about him. And only one page was published. Wiki should not be a place for ads. Alexeysim06 11:45, 25 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Alexey: what the program is known for is clear from the listed independent reviews. Some of these features are also listed on the Wikipedia page Comparison of statistical packages. For the certification see [The list of applications that have earned the "Certified for Windows Vista" logo]. Today only 118 companies have obtained the Certified for Vista logo for one or more of their products, so this is probably a fact worth mentioning. Frank 11:10, 27 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

References & notability

edit

I have added several references which are neutral and show notability. Frank1848 (talk) 14:31, 23 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

I read a couple of them and they were both trivial mentions. The sources must include substantial content specifically about MedCalc, not a mere mention of the name of the program. - MrOllie (talk) 14:34, 23 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
There are actually 2 independently published books, entirely dedicated to the program. These do not seem to be trivial mentions. Frank1848 (talk) 14:13, 9 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Which independently published books are you referring to? MrOllie (talk) 12:18, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
