I'm not a programmer so I don't know how easy it would be to implement, but I think it would be really neat if there were a tool to tell raters which weapons haven't been rated in a while (more than a year?). The Status page says which weapons haven't been rated AT ALL, which is fine, but just today I was looking at Ramtor and Scuzzys and their writeups are badly out of date. These are popular and important weapons, but unless one of our new raters just happens to stumble across them, they'll have no way of knowing they need updates.
The obvious problem I see with my idea is that there are a lot of weapons that don't NEED to be updated. Wet Snowball was crap 5 years ago and it's still crap.
So there needs to be some kind of filter in place. Such as:
If this is utterly unprogrammable, I understand, but I do think it would be nice. In the meanwhile, could someone please update the Neoquest II prizes?

So there needs to be some kind of filter in place. Such as:- autoflag only weapons that are worth more than, say, 10K
- no autoflag, allow users to flag weapons by request
- allow raters to flag weapons, or, if we go the autoflag route, allow them to UNflag weapons
