Considerable differences in predicted transition probabilities and collision strengths can result from differing wave-function choices. For the [O III] λ5007/λ4959 ratio, precise theoretical predictions range from 2.88 to 2.90; the mean photoelectrically observed value (45 nebulae) is 2.98±0.07 p.e. Theory and observation seem to agree for A-value ratios in nebular-type transitions of [N I], [O II], [S II], and possibly [Cl III]. Line-ratio diagrams are presented for various ions of interest in nebular plasma diagnostics.
