Hey dang. I have a question too.
Does it really need a 2011 tag?
I thought only blog posts and news articles got year tags. 12FA is guidelines website that is mostly timeless.
What's the criteria for a year tag?
- gunapologist99 4y agoThe year tag is also very useful for when you might have read it the first time, and want to know that it hasn't changed, or if you don't need/want to re-read it (while still participating in the discussion). It's also interesting to see how things have aged.
- pvg 4y agoThe year tags can and do go on anything, they're more for the readers than as some sort of commentary on the timeliness or lack thereof of the content. I think lots of people just find them handy to easily distinguish recent from not-so-recent stuff, as a very basic use case.
- onionisafruit 4y agoI’ve been curious what the oldest year tag applied on HN is.
