2020 Snapshot Table

• includes current last name

2020 JOYNER/JOINER Contributions (by Profiles) - Stats for Nerds in Covid lockdown...

^*1 This 'Top ten total' is not accurate because individual profiles may have been edited by more than one of the top ten contributors resulting in individual profiles being counted more than once in the 'Top ten total' - the true figure will be less that the total indicated. (it isn't a stack of apples but a stack of chopped apples)

^*2 This line of figures are accurately taken from the table above titled 2020 Snapshot but those totals include both profiles whose last name at birth was either Joyner/Joiner and also profiles whose current last name maybe Joyner/Joiner but not their last name at birth. On the other hand "Top Ten contributors" only refers to profiles whose last name at birth was either Joyner/Joiner which is a smaller number of profiles. (so comparing fruit salad with a stack of chopped apples)

^*3 The totals for 'Contributions by non-Top ten' are likely to lower than reality because of the inflated results given by 'Top ten total' (error indicated by ^*1).

^*4 'Extrapolated non-Top ten contributors' was calculated by dividing 'Contributions by non-Top ten' (a figure lower than reality) by 8 (the maximum number of contributions of those not in the top ten but which is an unreliable figure on two grounds ((A)) as for instance there may be many people who have only contributed to possibly 1 Joyner profile causing the figure to be hugely understated; and ((B)) Top Ten contributors will most likely have contributed to many of the "Joyner Current Last Name" profiles causing the figure to be hugely overstated).

Final analysis of the figures provided as "Extrapolated non-Top ten contributors" is that they are completely unreliable and are provided only for the purpose of the amusement of Nerds.
