General comments edit
I'm really impressed by the style of the article. Many articles on Wikipedia on mathematics are not easy to understand and you've managed to write very clearly and concise. A few things could maybe be improved:
- Theil–Sen estimation has been applied to astronomy due to its ability to handle censored regression models. Astronomy is a big field; where would you expect censored data sets?
- Maybe switch the words occurrence and speed. At first reading it wasn't entirely clear to me that the words wind and occurrence belong together.
- Mention of the python/scipy implementation of the Theil-Sen estimator? (https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy-0.15.1/reference/generated/scipy.stats.mstats.theilslopes.html)
