Currently, the date of each review is not displayed in the main "Reviews"
tab. This can be misleading for plugins which have not been
reviewed/updated recently. It also seems like very useful information for
adding context to older/newer versions of the plugin which might have
enhancements/bugs historically.
As an example, the [WP-LESS plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-less)
has not been updated in a long time. However if you look at the [Reviews
tab](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-less/#reviews) it appears that
everything is working with the current version of WordPress. If you
inspect the reviews more closely, they were actually left [several years
ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/well-written-and-maintenance-
free/) using old versions of WordPress.
Displaying a date next to the reviews adds a lot of context to the user's
decision making process.
Just to confirm, I have no issues with the WP-LESS plugin. I've never even
used it. The plugins was just the first one I found as a good example :)
