Notes. Fluxes are scaled with Hβ = 1000. Observed values for the optical lines are from Izotov & Thuan (1999), Skillman & Kennicutt (1993), and P08. Kehrig et al. (2015) provide a new integrated He ii flux, but the observed He ii intensity to be modeled, based on an average of the relatively stable He ii/Hβ intensity ratio measured in different slit spectra of I Zw 18-NW, is not changed.
