The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Documentation for `car` and `cdr` inside Emacs is circular
I think you lack some fundamental knowledge about what you are talking about. Perhaps if you start here and then read more about Lisp history here? A spoiler: McCarthy introduced first and rest instead of car and cdr early in the Lisp history but it was never widely accepted, and Clojure does not have cons in traditional Lisp sense, which makes sense since it is implemented on top of Java.

Recursive Functions of Symbolic Expressions and Their Computation by Machine
Yes, we have already learned it, thanks. If you are interested to learn more about Lisp, the origins and its history I recommend reading As Powerful as Possible by K. Majorinc.

Which Lisp is the most regular when it comes to syntax?
You might wish to take a look at some early lisp history (sorry for the bad English translation, it is not my first nor even second language :)).

Elisp and anti-patterns
Actually, he came up with some Lisp ideas independently of Lambda calculus, search on IPL and FLPL. He said, somewhere, that Church book was so boring, he never finished it. But he was influenced by some ideas and did suggest using lambdas in '58 as in Church calculus, and he mentions it in the paper from 1960. Whether Lisp or at least Scheme happens to be a realization of lambda calculus, or just heavily influenced, I am not so informed to answer, but there is some interesting discussion here or here, or if you are interested to read more, there is a free book on the early history of Lisp.

What is the history of the choice of () as the opposite of T?
For the historical points,I have translated one book about early lisp history into English. There is some historical reference mentioned, in chapter 9, about Pure Lisp, on page 93 about translation from Meta-expressions in S-expressions:
- as-powerful-as-possible: English translation of the book Moćan koliko je god moguće (by Kazimir Majorinc), a book about the origins and the initial years of Lisp, the programming language

Work-in-progress infographic slides for Emacs Lisp Community Workshop
If you don't mind my bad English translation, here is a book about Lisp history, touching explicitly on the link list representation McCarthy used (chapter 5.6). Or you can lookup McCarthy's original paper.
