How an edition is made
A program writes each edition from the counts that the bulletin shows in that month, with fixed sentence rules. A month keeps the counts of its last update.
A change compares this edition with the edition before. It is not a change in the UCDP data of one year. Candidate Events are preliminary, and UCDP revises them.
The row number is the place of a name in the table of the finding. A count of events is not a measure of danger. How the figures are made
