By “advice in the comments”, you mean new entries to the repositories, right? So you’re suggesting that we fragment the repository through a number of separate comment sections, labeled by year, and that is a really awful way of organizing a global repository of timeless articles.
If you’re worried about incumbents taking disproportionate precedence in the list(as more salient posts tend to get more attention; more votes; more salience), IIRC, reddits have a comment ordering that’s designed to promote posts on merit rather than seniority. If that isn’t sufficient to address incumbent bias then we should probably be talking about building a better one.
I meant, “in the comments of the new article”. I’m sorry if that wasn’t clear.
The goal was to get some discussion and new advice going, and that’s difficult if you just link to the old repository, which means one more click on the way, one trivial inconvenience more.
I had thought about copying all the advice (or the good pieces only) over to the old repository once this one is obsolete, i.e. once the rerun repository for march is posted, and I might do this then, if I find the time.
