Ranked by each person’s highest single disclosure in the year: a duplicate filing collapses to one row, and a person with two employers appears once, at their higher-paying role. Ties are broken alphabetically by name.

“Not in the 2005 top 100” compares by name against the 2005 list ranked the same way. A person filed under a different spelling in 2005 counts as new.
