02 · Is this figure normal

Where this award sits

A single large number tells you nothing on its own. What matters is whether this programme pays like this routinely or whether this was the one time it did.

#7 of 17 here
$225 this programme's median
$1,000 its largest published
#959 of 1,435 awards we hold

It is the 7th largest of 17 awards this programme has published. It is close to this programme's median, which makes it a fair picture of what the programme pays when it publishes at all.

Every figure here is drawn only from awards a platform chose to publish, which is a minority of what gets paid. Read the median as "of the payouts made public", never as "what this programme pays".

Where this came from. One row of a public platform feed, stored as published and never edited. We hold no report title, no write-up and no reproduction steps, because the feeds do not carry them and we do not go looking for them. A withheld name stays withheld; if a finder later asks the platform to un-name them, the next sweep un-names them here. Absence of an award figure is publication policy, not evidence a programme did not pay.
