Topic summary
Pages past their review date, listed — does this still hold?
This is a generated summary. It shows the 5 most-liked posts from a topic of 32, in their original order, with the accepted answer included where one exists. It is a reading aid and it will miss nuance — the full topic is the record.
Last maintenance note: the limitations section is the part most likely to be skipped and the part most likely to matter. It belongs above the examples, not at the bottom under a heading people scroll past.
I checked the source rather than the summary, and they differ.

Staff post. Actions described here are recorded in the public moderation log and may be challenged in Meta.
Worth separating two things that post #13 runs together.
Maintenance note. This document is due for review and the maintainer has asked for a second reader before the date rather than after it. If you use this page regularly, this is the moment your objection is cheapest to act on.
It is a small point and it changes the answer, which is an awkward combination.

This topic was closed 30 days after the last reply. Closing is automatic for quiet topics so that a settled answer does not collect new questions underneath it. If you have a follow-up, open a new topic and link back to this one — that keeps both readable and gives your question its own title.
