 "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). 18 of the 48 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 30 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 3 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 USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 307 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 median, minimum and maximum published price per month for a church of a stated size, across every vendor that publishes one, split by what the vendor charges FOR - a flat monthly fee, a fee keyed to people or households tracked, a per-module price, a one-time licence, or nothing but a percentage of giving; the share of vendors publishing a price at all versus quote-only; the all-in cost of a 150-member church once the processing percentage on its actual giving is added to the subscription, which is the comparison no vendor's pricing page makes and every roundup omits; and repriced-since the previous read",
