Stack Exchange — craftcms.stackexchange.com

The content of craftcms.stackexchange.com (https://craftcms.stackexchange.com/), a Stack Exchange question-and-answer site, as published in the Stack Exchange Data Dump of April 2024 on the Internet Archive. The posts table holds 66,013 rows: 31,544 posts (14,380 questions, 17,040 answers, 60 tag wiki excerpts, 60 tag wikis and 4 posts of type 6) and 34,469 comments, written between 12 June 2014 and 30 March 2024. Beside it are 12,038 user accounts, 87,240 votes, 29,385 badges awarded, 515 tags, 82,064 post revisions and 2,335 links between posts. Every answer keeps the question it answers and every comment the post it was written on, so the threads can be rebuilt. The Internet Archive item describes the dump as anonymised; the votes table names the voter in only 135 rows.
