Maybe you do not understand. FDR did a lot of different things. Some
of them shortened the depression , some prolonged the depression. The
Wake Forest study says " taken as a whole ". So one can agree with
Ohanian and Cole and still say that taken as a whole, FDR did not
prolong the depression. However most economists agree that what FDR
did in around 1937 did prolong the depression.

Wiki is a much more reliable source than you are.
