As the Stata 6 manuals were being written, we originally intended to track
the number of completely determined observations. In fact, some manuals
have messages (notes) to that effect.
However, as the likelihood of the fixed-effects and random-effects models
are in terms of the panels, it is better to track the number of completely
determined panels.
The interpretation of the completely determined panel is the same as for
the completely determined observations. See
completely determined observations
in logit for a detailed explanation.
