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 22 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 16 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 1 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere.
The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source for each breakdown it prices, in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences for one breakdown), so a page that gives figures for several breakdowns gives one for each and N counts 10 figures, never sentences; 90 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): two published figures joined into the one number an organiser budgets with: the venue's own published day or half-day rate per room and per exhibit hall, and the conference's own published delegate registration rate by band (early-bird, standard, late, member, non-member, student, virtual); the median and spread per US city and per venue class (convention centre, university conference centre, fairground, hotel), the early-bird discount as a percentage, and the member/non-member gap, nobody publishes either across venues, and the venue class comparison is the finding
90 candidate sentences on these pages were refused by a reviewer; each refusal and its reason is recorded in the review ledger.
