Bienaymé-Chebyshev Inequality: Also known as
The Bienaymé-Chebyshev Inequality is also known as Chebyshev's Inequality.
However, some sources use this name to mean the Chebyshev's Sum Inequality, which is a completely different result.
Hence, to avoid confusion, the name Chebyshev's Inequality is not used on $\mathsf{Pr} \infty \mathsf{fWiki}$.
Variants on spellings can be seen: Bienaymé-Tchebyshev Inequality, Tchebyshev's Inequality, and so on.
