There are actually two dates in the database. One is when the word was
first entered into the database, and the other is when it was last
modified. You will see a lot of early 2015 dates, because that is when the
major update took place to bring the list current after having stagnated
for many years.

It might be possible to go through the entire list and edit the "first
entered" date to reflect when the word was actually made known to the
Klingon-speaking community, instead of when it made it into the New Words
List, but that would be a serious effort and I do not have the right kind
of access to the data to make it happen well.
