## 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). 5 of the 19 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 14 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 4 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; 63 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): the price a congregation of 50, 250 and 1,000 pays across every church communication and management vendor that publishes a price, most price by people, not seats, so the only comparable figure is cost per congregation size, which no vendor publishes; beside it the giving-processing rate each charges (percentage plus per-transaction), because that is the real second price; plus the count publishing versus quote-only and what a bulletin contains across the template libraries read
