The propagators of the elementary degrees of freedom of (minimal-)Landau-gauge Yang-Mills theory have been a useful tool in various investigations. However, in lattice calculations they show severe dependencies on lattice artifacts. This problem has been addressed for various subsets of lattice artifacts and various subsets of propagators over the time. Here, an extended study of all propagators in momentum space, and for the gluon also in position space, as well as derived quantities like the running coupling, is provided simultaneously for two, three, and four dimensions over one or more orders of magnitude in both physical volume and lattice spacing, in lower dimensions also over more than two orders of magnitude for the gauge group SU(2). Most of the known qualitative results are confirmed, but two quantities also indicate a slight, but possibly interesting deviation.
