What the figures can tell us
Cumulative popularity does not measure recent growth. A benchmark depends on its tasks, date and model coverage. Scores are relative to the observed pool.
The team's opinions are signed and separate from the calculation. A Talk Show recommendation does not change a rank.
This archive keeps its historical version. The v3 method and its calibration are tracked separately and are not applied retroactively.
Preserved measurements and sources
The measurements below belong to this edition. A metric shown for context does not necessarily contribute to the score. Effective weights are shown only where they were preserved.

}Observation, calculation and publication
An observation dates a measurement at a source. Calculation freezes the score using available observations. Publication makes the edition accessible. These dates can differ; a new collection does not automatically republish a ranking.
Scheduled calculation slots at 03:17 and 15:17 UTC do not guarantee a new edition: coverage, baselines and validation can delay it. The displayed date belongs to the edition actually published.
