What we have so far
- A full list of URLs for the 51,947 credited contributors to the currently available articles - [1]
- A full list of URLs for the 1,858,710 articles currently live on the site - [2]
- HTML (only) grabs of the raw content_date index pages from Feb 2005-Jul 2014 - [3] and [4]
Basic map
All articles can be found sorted by date of publication via the URL scheme http://voices.yahoo.com/content_date_MM_DD_YYYY.html - valid dates from FEBRUARY 2005 to present day. (Invalid dates are accepted - e.g. 31st February is treated as March 3rd)
Most/all articles are categorised in [only] one of the following categories:
2 : Entertainment
3 : Business & Finance
5 : Health & Wellness
6 : Home Improvement
7 : Lifestyle
14 : Sports
15 : Technology
16 : Travel
27 : Automotive
38 : Books
47 : Creative Writing
62 : News
-- NB: list not complete --
Categories have main pages at URLs like http://voices.yahoo.com/books/?cat=38
Category IDs can be suffixed to content_date URLs (e.g. http://voices.yahoo.com/content_date_MM_DD_YYYY_6.html) to list only articles published on that date in that category.
Most articles are single-page basic text-and-graphics (e.g. http://voices.yahoo.com/yahoo-fires-all-contributors-12721520.html?cat=3) while others have video (e.g. http://voices.yahoo.com/video/how-better-housekeeper-12537238.html?cat=6) - the ?cat= category suffix does not appear to be necessary to access the page, but is added by the site if not present.
