You might want to explain or link to something that explains likelihood ratios in the article. I am vaguely aware of them, but still don't know how to interpret the two numbers, even after having tried to read the Wikipedia page.

Sweet, that helps a lot. So if someone says eating chocolate is correlated with getting acne at r=1.0, LR=100, that the most likely correlation is 1 (i.e. if you eat chocolate you will definitely get acne) and that this correlation is 100x as likely as there being no correlation?

Also as far as I understand this assumes normal distributions, not weird stuff like bimodal distributions. But then afaik most correlational stuff assumes normal distributions and it's hard to make it work otherwise?

Gotcha. That sounds totally right. (Of course, that sounds totally right to *me* who knows very little about statistics.)
