I do support the "only including worthwile messages" - otherwise, it's a
lot more noise than signal. However, I think we should cite to the older
messages, and if that means going through them at least cursorily, I
think that might be necessary because otherwise, the germination of a
lot of the theories will be lost. If we don't go back that far, the
whole Wand Order debate will be for naught. Same with a lot of the Draco
discussion, which is pretty cyclical. Or the first suppositions of a
family relationship between Snape and the Evanses. 

Am I adding ot the problem without helping?

Wibble.
