As a 2012 rookie, people are often amazed about how much I know about FIRST history.
95% of things I know about FIRST history come from spotlights. People who've been active on these forums for 10 years have little need for the spotlights, but it is an invaluable resource for newer dedicated (read: obsessed) members of the community. Progress is great, but anything that can be done to preserve spotlights would be fantastic.
I would argue that you don't even need to weed out the inside jokes. I only click on spotlights that I find interesting. If you don't want to click on it, it's only 1 line at the top of the page taking up space.

I picked up quite a lot of FIRST history the same way...
ten years ago. I'm certain some motivated freshmen could glean a lot today from going through them. And let's not even talk Valentine's Day.
If it poses a significant code hurdle, I understand (it's not like
I'm trying to maintain it!)--but it would be the feature I'd miss the most from the trim-down*.
*No slight to the UFH and WFA areas; they've just collected dust for so long that it's easier to let them go.
