Question

answers.semanticweb.com was a QA website a bit similar to here.

As described in my question there (the second one you linked, Creative Commons BY-SA for questions and answers?), a part of the content was not openly licensed (namely, everything created after the owner decided to no longer use CC BY-SA). — unor, Jan 04 '17 at 11:27
