Coverage

What this archive holds, and where it is thin. Counts are generated from the repository at build time, so this page is never staler than the data behind it.

By year

2011–2025. Empty years are drawn rather than skipped — a missing bar means nothing is indexed for that year, which is not the same as nothing happening.

What the record is missing

The archive is only as good as what can be checked. These are counted out of 63 works, and the shortfalls are the work still to do.

  • Have an abstract Quoted verbatim from the source; never written by us. 24/63
  • Link to the work itself A recording, deck, repo, paper or advisory. 38/63
  • Cite the page they came from Provenance, so any entry can be checked against its origin. 51/63
  • Have an archived mirror Regional conference sites go dark often. 17/63
  • 12 of 17 events have no indexed work yet — the largest single gap. See the landscape.
  • 50 of 69 researchers have no country recorded. Country is optional, stated-only, and never inferred, so this number is expected to stay high.
  • 0 profiles have been claimed. Entries stay minimal until the person claims them. How claiming works.

An archive, not a ranking. Nothing here is counted per person, and nothing here is a measure of anyone's worth — only of how much of the public record has been gathered.
