== Table for sigma levels ==
 
Either this table, or the table in the wikipedia article with the following link is wrong:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_Sigma#Sigma_levels
 
I am not an expert, so please someone revise it.

:No, they're correct. For process capability to be valid, the process must be stable, so yields of Φ(sigma level) - Φ(-sigma level) as given in the table (in the article coupled with this talk page) are correct. As the [[Six Sigma]] article indicates, the yields presented there represent the worst case deterioration of 1.5σ before a [[control chart]] is expected to catch the shift or drift, so yields of Φ(sigma level - 1.5) - Φ(-sigma level - 1.5) (for a shift or drift upward; a shift or drift downward is equivalent—you can do the math) are correct in that article. No action required. -- [[User:DanielPenfield|DanielPenfield]] ([[User talk:DanielPenfield|talk]]) 10:02, 27 January 2014 (UTC)
 
Example shown has a std. deviation that seems to not match chart data. Mu hat estimate (98.94) is correct, but estimated chart data std. deviation is ~0.869 (unbiased) or ~0.842 (std. population deviation), not 1.03, as stated.
 
..unless I am missing something or a different method is used for this? Any comments/clarification very welcomed and appreciated.
