Where project management work starts
Reasoned. Vendor sites held only 23.6% of project management citations, so outside pages carry much of the project management record. Review platforms held 1.2%, a minor project management source in this record. With 56.8% of project management entries in "other", we open each cited page before choosing one to work on. None of this is a measured effect of a change.
