Stack Exchange — vegetarianism.stackexchange.com
The content of vegetarianism.stackexchange.com (https://vegetarianism.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 5,565 rows: 2,409 posts (760 questions, 1,497 answers, 73 tag wiki excerpts, 73 tag wikis and 6 posts of type 6) and 3,156 comments, written between 31 January 2017 and 31 March 2024. Beside it are 5,075 user accounts, 16,039 votes, 7,661 badges awarded, 117 tags, 8,263 post revisions and 314 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 32 rows.
