I haven't looked much at the numbers on wiki although they appear to be lifted from The Criminal Justice Act 2003 - there's much more detail about sentencing at the other link I gave, which is the official sentence guidelines.
EDIT - I've checked them and they look correct from here: http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2003/44/schedules (Criminal Justice Act 2003 schedule 21)
