06Method

How a number gets here

Nothing is published on the strength of a headline. Every figure passes the same four checks, and every correction is logged in public.

Read the methodology Corrections register All 157 publishers

  1. Found in a primary document

    A statistical office, regulator, association or company report. Never a news article repeating one.

  2. Extracted with its sentence

    The value is stored with the verbatim quote, page or table, and the date we read it.

  3. Checked against the source

    Value, unit, scale, period and place are verified against the quote before publication.

  4. Published with a permanent address

    Each record gets a stable page and citation. Revisions supersede it; nothing is silently changed.
