Hello, I love this community, but I can't stand it that so many posts don't feature the year that the artwork was made. That's such important information, just to place that piece of art in context. Maybe it can be made a requirement to include the year? What do you think?

If a requirement is not the best way, how about a polite urge, accompanied by delicate, but persistent social pressure? Such pressure could be exerted with tastefully passive aggressive comments like "year", or just "y", where it's missing.
