Stark broadening parameters for neutral-helium lines obtained using a semiclassical perturbation formalism are compared with critically selected experimental data. Our data are also compared with the results of Benett and Griem as well as with the semiclassical convergent calculations of Bassalo, Cattani, and Walder.
