Keywords: chronology issues, content date debate, content date, article date, content age, dateless URL
My premise: It would be great if all content over the internet had a date associated to it. Creation date | Published date | Completion Date | Refreshed date something of the sort which makes a user aware as to how old is this published content so that the user can take a call on the validity of reference of the content to a specific time frame.
while searching over the internet for similar queries... I found these two articles most close to my premise while I searched for the String "Web Content date debate"

The Other Side of the coin
A blog focused on timeless content — such as recipes, relationship advice, business tips or opinions — could benefit from a date-free blog design. The removal of dates and other unnecessary meta-data allows the blog to look more like a resource and less like a journal or commentary on fleeting issues.
But date removal is not wise for all formats. Consider a blog covering web design techniques or technology trends. While these types of posts are often found without a date, some readers may find it irresponsible not to provide some indication of how old the technique is. Readers new to the techniques benefit more from using current information that is relevant to today’s standards.
