of the website[^3] only 6% of these events have *both* photometric and spectroscopic data available (34% only have lightcurves, 7% only have spectra, and 53% have neither).

This article presents an analysis of flare statistics by retrospectively cross-referencing metadata from a suite of instruments that take flare-relevant observations – the *Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager* (RHESSI: @lin02), the *Multiple EUV Grating Spectrograph* (MEGS; @crot04) -A and -B components of EVE [@wood12], the *EUV Imaging Spectrometer* (EIS: @culh07), the *Solar Optical Telescope* (SOT: @tsun08), the *X-Ray Telescope* (XRT: @golu07), and the *Interface Region Imaging Spectrometer* (IRIS: @depo14) – to search for flaring events observed simultaneously, either intentionally or serendipitously. The purpose of this article is to present an overview of how successful the solar community has been in capturing flare data through coordinated efforts. We also describe a database of these events that give researchers access to multi-wavelength datasets with which to address a given science question. Section \[s:data\_anal\] describes how the various archives from each instrument were exploited. Section \[s:results\] presents the findings. The conclusions and a discussion are presented in Sections \[s:conc\] and \[s:disc\], respectively.
