Coverage and parsing

The full file contains 5,348 records and 5,347 distinct approval numbers. All countries in the source are included. Records are grouped only by approval number. Approval MW 920 has two source records; both are shown separately. Approval numbers with different source whitespace remain separate source keys, even when their displayed text matches. Every nonempty source field is shown, including remarks and address-withheld indicators. Whitespace is collapsed for display, and long dashes are displayed as plain hyphens. The original source wording and all columns are retained in the local dataset.
