In the referenced page, the problem is probably mis-stated, because, as stated, 
the probability is zero for  N > 1.

This kind of exercise should probably not be a mainspace page. I would suggest 
a subpage under an appropriate math resource, for "Problems." The problem would 
be given in a section on that page, with, then, a link to a subpage "Solution 
by Abd" -- if I were the author. That would be an attributed page. It could 
contain errors. How to handle that can vary, but the identification of error  
is a critical part of the educational process. I'd be happy to assist.

This is important to understand. Attributed text, sections, subpages need not 
be neutral. That is what makes it possible to build sophisticated content on 
WV, including original research.
