## Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 6 of the 19 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 13 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in % (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 125 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): one row per published figure - publisher, figure, population, sample size, field dates, instrument, release cadence - so the reader can see that the headline numbers disagree and why; the count of publishers per figure type, the spread between the highest and lowest published engagement rate for the same year, and which series broke (the 2025 FEVS was cancelled). The hub asserts no benchmark of its own: every number is an observation sourced to its publisher, which is what its subject charter requires.
