Easy there. New correlation coefficients get proposed all the time (eg. the introduction of the linked paper lists ~10-20 alone!). It's not a good idea to add every newly proposed coefficient to established wiki pages, just because they trend on social media. Yes, the paper looks nice, but if you read any new paper proposing a new measure, they all do! They're meant to be written that way. Let the community decide and test and discuss, and if in 10 years this new coefficient is well accepted and has proven itself, we can think about your proposed edit. Doing it before is putting the cart before the horse, and is a recipe for astroturfing.
