There's already something on there about this:
Avoid wording that will become dated. "The latest" happenings won't be so "recent" in a month or so. If it's necessary to establish a time frame for something, use a name, an episode number or the like.
The problem with this, though, is that I doubt the majority of tropers read the Tips Worksheet, especially in its entirety.

Using the words "currently," or "yesterday," or "last week," etc., is one of the most common mistakes that I see people make.
Maybe there should be a big, hard-to-miss reminder that Examples Are Not Recent when using the edit page?
