- 5Sections, every one of them sourced
- 17Read in full
- 12Read at the abstract only
| What the source is | How many | How they were read |
|---|---|---|
| Origin: the paper, post or announcement in which a technique, a term or a finding first appeared | 16 | Twelve papers at their abstract; two papers, the naming post and Oxford’s announcement in full |
| Vendor: a company writing about its own product, practice or survey | 7 | All seven in full; what they say about themselves is on the page as theirs |
| Reporting: journalism about the job | 3 | All three in full; one reports a paywalled article, and what it quotes is attributed through it |
| Reference: two surveys of the field and an encyclopaedia | 3 | All three in full; the encyclopaedia is used only for its quotation of a dictionary that could not be opened |
