This is an archived version of the DH Q&A website based on Wayback Machine snapshots from February and March 2019.
The site was active from 2010 to early 2019.
Based on DH Q&A questions auto-posting to DH Slack and the DH Q&A Twitter account, we believe this snapshot is not missing any questions between March 2019 and when the site went offline, but it may be missing new answers or edits.
Snapshots were downloaded using the Wayback Machine downloader in early 2020 by Amanda Visconti and Rebecca Sutton Koeser.
Since the display of the site was already partially broken by March 2019, the archive site is based primarily on a February 2019 snapshot with missing content added from the March snapshot. The downloaded snapshot has been edited to create an archive site, including:
- making absolute URLs pointing to the old site relative
- correcting broken javascript and css links
- adjusting RSS links and filenames so the snapshot content renders as XML
- a custom 404 page based on the original
- CSS to add a corner banner indicating the site is an archive
- CSS to disable dynamic links and forms (login links, language switcher)
The two snapshot are available in the repository via tags.
Note that there is a related repository DH-Answers-BBpress (previously named DH-Answers). That repository contains the 2011 version of the BBpress files for the DH Q&A website, but does not include any of the site content.
