All I was doing was highlighting the fraudulent voting and trying to give a brief explanation as to what this inferred (ie that the film is polarising due to its content), and to remove spurious statistical analysis. And whilst I may not have exactly spelled out what I was going to change, the concerns about the paragraph had been raised by myself and numerous others previously, with no counterarguement as to why the statistical analysis was valid --[[User:J00ni|J00ni]] 17:57, 25 July 2008 (EDT)

:Oh and for the record, I just had a brief look at some other IMDB ratings pages for some films with low ratings, and almost without exception they had a high proportion of 1 votes, irrespective of the film's subject matter. Also, and again this was irrespective of the film subject, there were a disproportionate number of 10 votes for even the worst-rated films. I don't really know what this proves, other than that IMDB average ratings shouldn't be used to accurately guage a film's quality --[[User:J00ni|J00ni]] 18:13, 25 July 2008 (EDT)

::"...Go to the IMDB site and look up some bad movies that are rated low, but not the type that people would get riled about and purposely dog. See the distribution of values for 2 through 10? Does it look anything like Expelled? The distribution curve for Expelled removing the 1 values is for a movie that was well received; the 1 values are an attempt to purposely dog it. We prefer reality..." [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 18:18, 25 July 2008 (EDT)
