    Historical canon501

    Older ranked records represented before 2025-08-30. Useful for prominence and memory—not total activity.

    Recent candidate pool1,000

    Newest records from 2025-08-30 to 2026-08-08. The boundary is inferred because original retrieval provenance was not stored.

    Analysis availability · Core views

    Core views require at least 1,500 total records and 500 canon records; this corpus has 1,501 and 501. Topic comparison is withheld because this corpus has not been topic-enriched.

    Historical material available

    501 ranked historical records span 17 represented years. Topic evolution is not shown until this corpus has enriched topic assignments.

    Sampling and methodology

    Collected records: 1,501

    Represented range: 2009-10-28 → 2026-08-08

    The corpus combines a broad newest-post listing with bounded top/year and top/all listings. The interface infers the recent boundary from the newest 1,000 records because original retrieval provenance was not stored.

    Older records are analyzed as a ranked historical canon. They can show what was prominent and repeatedly surfaced within ranked retrieval; they cannot estimate total monthly activity, publishing habits, or whole-conversation prevalence.

    Recent contender ranking compares posts within age bands using score and reply-count percentiles. Platform attention is not evidence quality, accuracy, representativeness, or future performance.
