  You've been active here for 9 years and haven't noticed yet that posts from previous years get a [year] tag in their title?

    Sure I did, and that is fine when talking about the last fad in web programming. But we don't need such nitpicking for articles on more stable arguments.

But we don't need such nitpicking for articles on more stable arguments. ... right, that is the reason for putting the year in titles ... Or maybe it's done so that you can quickly discern whether it's old news, or a new development of something you've heard about previously.

      It isn't nitpicking, its just regular old helpful. Like, I want to see where you are coming from, but I'm actually kind of stuck on this. How is it nitpicking? Where I'm coming from is the expectation that a citation includes the year of publication.
