  • Coverage is April 2000 through April 2026: 1,909 talks by 370 speakers. Sustainings, audit and statistical reports, and videos are left out. October 2026 joins once its text is posted.
  • Verse counts use scripture links in footnotes and talk text, counted once per talk. "Cited by" counts later talks whose footnotes link to one of these talks.
  • Main topics are estimates assigned by a language model from each talk's opening and closing. Signature phrases compare how many of these talks use a phrase with how many other talks do.
  • Leaders quoted are found by name in footnotes. Outside authors are found by name in the text and footnotes. Sketch notes are Weak Things study aids, not official Church materials.
