15.87%, not 15.73%

[edit]

"15.73%" should be replaced by "15.87%", which is the correct value for the tails beyond ±1σ. The original PNG image used the value "15.73%" because it was only including the interval between 1σ and 3σ (as can be seen by the fact that the tails are white beyond ±3σ in the PNG version, not blue), but the SVG version colors the whole tail beyond ±1σ (which makes more sense in my opinion) and should use the value 15.87%. (Note that with this new value, the three segments add up 100.01%, whereas with 15.73% they only add up 99.73%.) —Cousteau (talk) 16:30, 2 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
