New rule suggestion: song posts must include at least genre and year (yiffit.net)

When people post a link to a song, there is no way to tell what kind of music it is or what period it's from. To help engagement and the user experience, I suggest we require people to at least write the genre and year in the title of their post. Bonus points for adding some explanation in the body of the post about the significance of the song and why they're sharing it.

The genres have gotten so out of hand, I have no idea what is what outside of usual vague "pop rock metal hip hop" labeling. The year I understand.
