I searched a lot to find an actual meaning of this word. I found that they are line of text in configuration files but I am not sure if they also mean something else in Linux context and outside.

A stanza is a piece of a configuration file, for example:
# Available loglevels: trace8, ..., trace1, debug, info, notice, warn, # error, crit, alert, emerg. # It is also possible to configure the loglevel for particular # modules, e.g. #LogLevel info ssl:warn ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combinedThis is a stanza from the Apache sites-available configuration file that controls logging, located in /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf when you have Apache installed.
The origin may be googled, this is what I had found.
