They said they would. What happened?
302 goals 133 public figures set out in their own words, each quoted and dated. The consistency index compares what someone said with what they said before; this compares what they said with what the record shows they did.
A status is an editorial reading, not a scorecard. 22 of the 58 settled goals currently carry a dated source for the outcome itself — the rest are marked as unsourced on their pages rather than presented as findings.
AchievedWhere the declared goal was reached
18 goals · 14 people · 10 sourced
What they said they would do is on the record as done, in the terms they set.
FailedWhere the goal was pursued and not reached
8 goals · 6 people · 8 sourced
The attempt is on the record and so is the shortfall; the reasons are usually contested and the analysis says by whom.
AbandonedWhere the goal was dropped rather than missed
5 goals · 3 people · 4 sourced
The goal left the agenda — withdrawn, reversed, or overtaken — which is a different thing from trying and falling short.
UnclearWhere the record does not settle it either way
27 goals · 25 people · 0 sourced
Partly delivered, redefined along the way, or measured differently by each side — so it is left open rather than scored.
ActiveWhere the goal is still open
244 goals · 121 people
Declared and still in play. Nothing has settled it, so there is nothing yet to hold against it.
