I work for a large chemical company as "Methods Editor": I cooperate within a team to manage and facilitate the company's analytical and test methods process. I provide coaching, method documentation skills, and statistical expertise to insure that methods will produce valid results for the intended application.

Being a Methods Editor, I frequently evaluate variance data according to ISO Standard 5725 [1]. ISO 5725 refers to Cochran's C test [2] for verifying if three or more variance estimates are mutually consistent. The C test is mentioned in many text books. However, a dedicated article in Wikipedia is lacking. As I have published [3] [4] a generalized version of the C test, I feel interested to start working on an initial draft for a short article on the C test in Wikipedia.
