Category-finalist records / distinct project-title keys
Because EWIT and MadeByCat have related ownership, this is not an independent awards jury or quality ranking. It is only a data analysis of the official finalist list. It does not support best-agency, customer-success, accessibility, security, conversion or award-win claims.

How did we count?
- Source snapshot: official finalist-list HTML accessed on 3 November 2026. li.ao-finalist rows and their .ao-info cards, category headings, project titles, owner/credit fields and project links were parsed. There are 248 rows across 29 categories. Row numbers are document positions in this snapshot, not official record IDs.
- Two metrics: each category-finalist row credited to a name counts once. A distinct project/title key is the title after Unicode NFC, whitespace collapse and Turkish lowercase normalization. Punctuation and wording stay intact; titles are not merged because of a shared client or domain. This is not a count of unique customers or verified unique implementations.
- Agency credit: h6 fields are read in document order. Outside Ajans (Kreatif ve Reklam Ajansı), only cards with multiple h6 fields supply agency credit from the last h6; a sole h6 is the project owner and is not credited. In the agency category, the last h6 is agency credit; a sole h6 counts once as a self-entry. CSS classes do not determine credit. Rows 78 (Rotatroya), 132 (GoWay) and 167 (Super Agency) are sole-h6 owner records outside the agency category, not agency credits.
- Shared credits: each explicitly comma-separated name receives one full record, not a fraction. Rows 17, 147, 149, 157 and 193 have shared credits. The owner is not additionally credited. There are 212 attributed rows, 36 unattributed rows and 217 credit assignments. Agency totals therefore need not equal the row total.
- Repetition and order: a title in multiple categories remains multiple category records but one title key. No identical category+title+credit duplicate exists in this snapshot. Official credit names are retained with whitespace trimmed. Counts sort descending; ties share a rank and display in Turkish alphabetical order. Not all 60 source-credited names have independently been classified as agencies.
- 252/248 scope difference: the official finalist-list introduction states 1,123 submissions, 252 projects and 29 categories. These totals do not appear in the separately accessed announcement text, so they are attributed to the list introduction. Its HTML contains 248 parseable rows; the reason for the four-record difference is unknown. No missing projects, technical failure or out-of-category records are inferred.

Change log
1.1 · 3 November 2026: corrected owner/credit attribution by h6 cardinality and position; sole-h6 owner records outside the agency category no longer receive credit. The 248 rows, two metrics, self-entry/shared-credit rules and 252/248 scope gap remain. Initial publication preparation; finalist status is not treated as an award win. Existing agency evidence bands, category membership and dated observations remain unchanged.
