| Originally, the Hour of Code and /yourschool census form submissions were written to the Pegasus `forms` table. That data was migrated into `census_submissions` and the mapping between the original `forms` row and the `census_submissions` row is stored in `census_submission_form_maps`. The old Pegasus form handlers are [here](https://github.com/code-dot-org/code-dot-org/blob/staging/pegasus/forms/census.rb) and [here](https://github.com/code-dot-org/code-dot-org/blob/staging/pegasus/forms/hoc_census.rb) and the script used to migrate the data is [here](https://github.com/code-dot-org/code-dot-org/blob/staging/bin/oneoff/move_census_data.rb). | ||

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Since this is historical, and largely not relevant to consuming the data (now in its new location), I'd suggest moving this to the end and under its own heading, e.g. Background or Prior versions.

Yeah for documentation! There's a little bit about the census on the wiki. Do we want to consolidate? Leave the wiki as is? Remove the wiki article since it's very introductory? Reference this README in the wiki? I'm still not 100% clear on what info goes where. |

I did not realize there was also a wiki page. Since that page is really just a project intro I think it would be best to add a link to this README and otherwise leave it alone. I wanted to keep details here to give a high level overview of the different parts to anyone working on census. This location seems much more discoverable than the wiki. |
Adding a bit of documentation about the various kinds of census data. Let me know if you can think of anything I left out or if anything here could use more details.
