Seems like the “top stories” area hasn’t been updating for a while. For example the “current” set is for the first half of 2022. Can this be updated to be dynamic?
Hi,
another entry is added to each rating category in the Top Rated list on every other Saturday - and the newly added entries are then also featured prominently during those two weeks on the main page in the “Top Rated” tab.
The Top Rated section always covers half a year and will contain 12 or 13 stories in each category when it’s filled completely (26 weeks divided by 2). Then it will switch to the next half-year period.
Beginning in January, it will switch to feature stories published in the first half of 2023.
That the top-rated lists cover stories published a year ago is intentional - stories need some time to collect ratings, and there would be no point in featuring stories published too recently.
Let me know if you have any more questions about this (admittedly rather elaborate mechanism 
).
