Jan 31, 2012 at 2:42 comment added Wesley @syneticon-dj The only thing that matters is if it's on-topic in the present, not in the past. If they got answered in the past is of no consequence to the present. Present askers have used past questions as justification for current contributions that are no longer on-topic. Cleaning up our history is important to make sure that we stay on course for the foreseeable future.
Jan 31, 2012 at 2:32 comment added the-wabbit The trouble with this approach seems to be that sometimes questions which are off-topic now were on topic at the time they were asked. Also, since the questions are here and got answered, why bother?
