Incorrect reference that does not support a claim

[edit]

The article says "This work was developed further by Breiman, Smyth, Clarke and many others, and in particular the top two winners of 2009 Netflix competition made extensive use of stacked generalization (rebranded as "blending")[25]", with the reference being: Joseph Sill; et al. (2008). "Feature-Weighted Linear Stacking". Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena. 237 (9): 1257–1281. arXiv:0708.1362. Bibcode:2008PhyD..237.1257W. doi:10.1016/j.physd.2008.03.040. S2CID 2033616.

The arXiv link goes to a paper written not by Sill et al., but instead by Wolpert himself titled "Physical limits of inference". I suggest the sentence be deleted. 198.4.83.52 (talk) 16:14, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
