Abstract
Oikonomou [Physica A 386 (2007) 119] has published a calculation which purports to show that the Tsallis and Renyi entropies can be obtained from the generalized multinomial coefficients. In this paper, we prove that the method of generalized multinomial coefficients failed to determine the Tsallis entropy at equilibrium. Moreover, it is shown that Oikonomou's analysis contains mistakes which led him to misleading statements related to the Jaynes principle of maximum entropy, the Tsallis and the Renyi statistics.
