Talk:State Champion Statistics

This page has potential, somewhat, but deciding on a definitive ranking of state competitiveness is essentially impossible. There are too many variables that factor into a state's "competitiveness" that choosing one set is very arbitrary. In the end, "competitiveness" is an opinion, not a fact, and that's why we continue to have debates over whether or not a state is "competitive."

I propose that instead of using this page as a measure of a state's competitiveness, we use it for a guide to comparing states- no "rankings", but a comparison of several criteria that allow a viewer to decide unbiasedly.

Any other suggestions?

Oh, and I strongly suggest standardizing Michigan with the rest of the states. We prefer not to play favorites. Zyzzyva98 19:22, 20 January 2012 (EST)
