Current use and blocked candidates

European city data sources

The main profile facts come from accepted Eurostat City Statistics slices. DATA-016 supplies 9,847 non-comparative profile facts; 51 source cells remain numeric-missing. ENTITY-007 accepts provider identity only within ESTAT:CITIES(7.0). It accepts no permanent city identity, country attachment, lifecycle, boundary, route, page admission, or indexability. PAGE-004 separately links reviewed national-authority records on exactly seven reachable, noindex profiles: Graz and six Hungarian cities. Those panels do not establish same-entity identity, provider boundaries or centroids, page admission, comparisons, rankings, or indexability. The current public projection has seven panels and does not project the remaining 688 profiles. All 695 still lack a provider-geography point and fail PAGE-002. Reachable profiles remain noindex. Other sources remain blocked or registered.

Accessed 1 September 2026 from the exact Eurostat datacodes. OPS-012 clears the selected use of seven later captured responses, and OPS-013 makes those releases the current pointers while retaining the accepted 2023 perception release. DATA-016 keeps exact value tokens, source-status codes, periods, and release lineage for every selected profile fact.

DATA-016 selects the newest eligible accepted numeric observation for each provider and metric. Selected periods vary by observation from 2022 through 2025 and appear beside every value. This mixed-vintage profile view is not an accepted comparison or ranking cohort.

The exact-token display path does not invoke a rounding decision. P-012 remains pending, and the stored age-65-plus calculation is not in the public bundle. P-009 remains open for comparisons, rankings, other source families, and future releases.

Eurostat — City statistics (Urban Audit)

Accepted direct-fact slice

OPS-008 retains the original eight accepted City Statistics snapshots. OPS-012 clears selected use of seven exact later responses, and OPS-013 makes those releases the current pointers while retaining the accepted 2023 perception release. DATA-016 applies 37 metric-specific recipes to 695 reachable profiles: 9,847 non-comparative facts are displayed, 323 observations remain withheld under COR-2026-006, and 51 source-status-only cells remain numeric-missing. COR-2026-010 corrected 234 German facts that had shown an older period because the recipe chose the newest number before testing its source status. Every selected value keeps its own 2022–2025 period, exact source token, status, and release lineage. ENTITY-007 separately accepts the 701 provider identities only within ESTAT:CITIES(7.0); it does not establish permanent city identity, country, coordinates, boundaries, lifecycle, cross-version continuity, a direct cohort, rank, page admission, or indexability. COR-2026-007 keeps MT001C unresolved. Profiles remain reachable and noindex, and the public bundle contains no provider-level country field.

Statistik Austria — Municipalities

Accepted associated-municipality slice

ENTITY-008 associates the Graz provider profile with municipality 60101 without treating the records as the same entity or the municipality as the provider boundary. PAGE-004 uses only the compact linked-authority-record panel; all 695 profiles still lack a provider-geography point and fail PAGE-002.

CITY-LAU supplies the row-level relationship evidence used by the Graz and six Hungarian PAGE-004 panels. Provider and administrative records remain distinct.

ENTITY-009 accepts exact KSH settlement identifiers and authority names for six associated administrative records. The 2025 register's Jogállás 2005 code and label remain off the profile panels as 2005-referenced source literals, not current or provider legal status.
