Interesting that the reason for so short open time is lack of
moderators, then say that moderators can be contacted to reopen
threads.

Couple of posts there reasoned that some months would be more useful.

Do posters remember to make the proper reference? Do people involved
in the closed thread get notified in that case? Or in the case that
the message is edited later to add the reference (or tags that were
not added properly at creation time)? Is the world moving so fast that
14-30 days are necro now? Hey, look, a squirrel!!!

Last post in thread mentioned an idea to smooth all this a bit (add
"New Linked Topic"). Page says closed while showing Reply button, so
it got implemented but forgot to label it properly, or there is
another kind of bug.

Cheers,
GSR
