Methodology

Metrics scope

Platform metrics shown on public pages are aggregate, non-personal counters used for transparency and directional insight rather than audited financial reporting.

Data sources

• First-party publishing database counters
• Search and performance tooling references
• Official documentation for standards and eligibility

Update cadence

Public summaries are refreshed on a recurring schedule. High-volatility pages may update more frequently than long-form evergreen pages.

External resources policy

Resource links are selected for relevance, reliability, and maintenance quality. Curated references are reviewed periodically on the Resources page.
