It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

If I've got it right it's anything that can directly or indirectly identify you. I would've thought most things here wouldn't fall under gdpr except maybe email addresses or if they've specifically mentioned something identifiable in comments or posts. One other thing I think that might be a problem is the data on pictures from a phones camera might indicate where and when it was taken which could narrow down that users location. I know some hosting sites strip this data but some might keep it.
No.
Anything that is related to you as a person. This is more than the things that identify you. For example things that you have done, places where you have been ... comments that you have written.... You could say: all that your stalker wants to know about you.
All things here fall under the GDPR, but maybe not all things must be deleted on user's request. That is a different question then! For example, one could argue that by posting an article or a comment, the user has agreed that it gets published here and then it cannot be taken back.
