 "methodology": "Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through our fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 3 of the 11 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 8 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in USD (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 60 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. The fuller derivation this dataset is chartered to grow into (not yet what the figures above are; they are each source's own published figure as read): the BLS OES mean and median hourly wage for occupation 47-2141 by state and metro, indexed against the national figure, set beside the PPI series for paint and coating manufacturing; the derivation is the labour-and-material cost floor per state - what a crew must be paid and what a gallon costs - against which the cost index's published prices are read, and the changed-since on each release",
