Dear Frank, in general it is not possible to determine the intensity of a reflection from a single fine slice. One needs slices for the complete reflection. Also, like Bernard, you are imposing criteria on the MPR, which are not imposed on the multiplicity/redundancy/abundancy.

Dear Bernard and other bulletin board members, As Gerard mentioned, current data processing programs and table 1’s do not make this distinction, but of course, you are free to ask the community to introduce it. My proposal to use “measurements per reflections” is not a joke. It exactly describes what is meant by the parameter and it is easily understood even by lay people like journal editors and referees, without the need of lengthy explanations like the ones we have seen in this thread. I really would like to ask you to consider replacing multiplicity/redundancy/abundancy by MPR. At minimum, it may prevent a thread about completeness of data sets to be hijacked by a discussion on whether use the name multiplicity of redundancy for the number of measurements per reflection.

The more generic term “Statistical Descriptors“ is though and even offers Recommendations:- http://ww1.iucr.org/iucr-top/comm/cnom/statdes/recomm.html<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__ww1.iucr.org_iucr-2Dtop_comm_cnom_statdes_recomm.html&d=DwMFaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=vb2CFOGKla49hE2sbHAt6LCUz63K7uis9PmSUxUgMcM&s=-45HByHsLJPmc2KRmPKamiFNf1WFCI51GonllFyIRTE&e=> Point 1, first sentence, fits the various wishes of this thread succinctly, if not in a single word, and even not readily allowing an easy acronym.

And conversely redundant works for many others - Graeme's pragmatic defense of multiplicity actually works both ways - any person who takes the trouble to read the stats table, now exiled to Supplementary Data, knows what it means. Surely, then, the only way forward on this almost totally irrelevant discussion is to come up with a universally-loathed nomenclature that pleases nobody, preferably an acronym whose origins will be lost to history and the dusty CCP4 archives (which contain threads similar to this one). I humbly submit: NFDOF: Nearly Futile Data Overcollection Factor ? [*] Or, even better, could we not move on to equally pointless discussions of the inappropriateness of "R-factor" ? I have a long history of rearguard action trying to give stupid acronyms a wider audience, so you're guaranteed to hear from me on this for years. (Personally I'm pining for Gerard Kleywegt to resume his quest for overextended naming rationales, of which ValLigURL is a personal 'favo[u]rite'. But I'm just old-fashioned.)

The amount that anyone outside of methods development cares about the “epsilon” multiplicity of reflections is … negligible? Sorry for chucking pragmatism into a dogmatic debate 😀 Cheerio Graeme ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.jiscmail.ac.uk_cgi-2Dbin_WA-2DJISC.exe-3FSUBED1-3DCCP4BB-26A-3D1&d=DwQFaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=vb2CFOGKla49hE2sbHAt6LCUz63K7uis9PmSUxUgMcM&s=aGhwDJW1Tz5Uv5JNfNgM0GK130Iyy3LfbUxrB8T_uo0&e=> This message was issued to members of www.jiscmail.ac.uk/CCP4BB<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.jiscmail.ac.uk_CCP4BB&d=DwQFaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=vb2CFOGKla49hE2sbHAt6LCUz63K7uis9PmSUxUgMcM&s=XxFj75JTvy4wp52qIe1FqQsa7--uLknEz4dPWcvffP0&e=>, a mailing list hosted by www.jiscmail.ac.uk<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.jiscmail.ac.uk&d=DwQFaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=vb2CFOGKla49hE2sbHAt6LCUz63K7uis9PmSUxUgMcM&s=9E0X2NSQ08FgQv_wzJVxbzs5lsC4iLM9PlOGHnQhw6Y&e=>, terms & conditions are available at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.jiscmail.ac.uk_policyandsecurity_&d=DwQFaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=vb2CFOGKla49hE2sbHAt6LCUz63K7uis9PmSUxUgMcM&s=tQo38qgGTFaUn_RZb-ZF04Kjn2Gh2oJr1aNHHE-ELRw&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.jiscmail.ac.uk_cgi-2Dbin_WA-2DJISC.exe-3FSUBED1-3DCCP4BB-26A-3D1&d=DwMFaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=vb2CFOGKla49hE2sbHAt6LCUz63K7uis9PmSUxUgMcM&s=aGhwDJW1Tz5Uv5JNfNgM0GK130Iyy3LfbUxrB8T_uo0&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.jiscmail.ac.uk_cgi-2Dbin_WA-2DJISC.exe-3FSUBED1-3DCCP4BB-26A-3D1&d=DwMFaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=J0zDXf_fmFuuuSdL_f3Rux6-Dkg9g4Myb2J6inlBYOY&s=Ib310E3JW-V0qyXGEQchrvA7HBHF9JKxtpRbxK4HkMo&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.jiscmail.ac.uk_cgi-2Dbin_WA-2DJISC.exe-3FSUBED1-3DCCP4BB-26A-3D1&d=DwMFaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=J0zDXf_fmFuuuSdL_f3Rux6-Dkg9g4Myb2J6inlBYOY&s=Ib310E3JW-V0qyXGEQchrvA7HBHF9JKxtpRbxK4HkMo&e=> ________________________________ To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.jiscmail.ac.uk_cgi-2Dbin_WA-2DJISC.exe-3FSUBED1-3DCCP4BB-26A-3D1&d=DwMGaQ&c=Dbf9zoswcQ-CRvvI7VX5j3HvibIuT3ZiarcKl5qtMPo&r=HK-CY_tL8CLLA93vdywyu3qI70R4H8oHzZyRHMQu1AQ&m=Vd6Mrw_TUoLXxDwo9SKiswUXRTCFhvliNIu0-Cq1g4I&s=oxRUDhkU-7b7LsJm_Ihj9pYj0pBUYrSU9ev41fu5JOk&e=> ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the CCP4BB list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/WA-JISC.exe?SUBED1=CCP4BB&A=1 This message was issued to members of www.jiscmail.ac.uk/CCP4BB, a mailing list hosted by www.jiscmail.ac.uk, terms & conditions are available at https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/policyandsecurity/
