“Last Updated” Date

After some discussion, we have clarified the way that the Last Updated date must be listed on TAFL fanlistings. The rule now reads:

Your fanlisting must list when it was last updated.
This date should be in an easy-to-find, well marked place. You MUST either write out the month (March 4, 2005) or, if you use a numerical date, you MUST provide a key/legend immediately before or after the date, explaining the format used (4/5/2005 – dd/mm/yyyy). As more than one date format is considered ‘standard,’ you are required to provide a clear way to read the date regardless of the format used. Failing to use either suggested format could result in your fanlisting being added to the troubles list.

This is to make things easier for everyone – dates specific to North America (mm/dd/yy) or Europe (dd/mm/yy) can make your fanlisting look inactive when it really isn’t and cause unnecessary trouble. We would appreciate if fanlisting owners took a moment to make this change on their fanlistings. Thank you.
