Fakten: auf einen Blick
Explanation:
I like your versions, but I think you should include the word "facts".

An extract of all that has been proposed should do the trick.

Have fun!

Yes, 'Fakten' should appear in that headline somewhere. Like most of the times, I liked all answers. One day, I will probably use Alexander's 'Fakten-Express' for my own web site (if it is all right?)
Thank you all!
