Sources & coverage

Matrix of editions and documentary architecture. The 2014 and 2019 states come from a preliminary audit; 2024 states incorporate the pilot inventory where available.

Documentary state

‘Complete’ denotes the programme or stratum enumerated in the pilot source, not a universal census of all event activities. ‘Partial’ does not imply a person lacks credentials.
