Good initiative @OP!
I think you should add "the name of local board" into your format, this can be used for you, other merit sources or even other users to check the post that they understand the language.
-Only posts made within the last 120 days are eligible for submission
I have to disagree, what's the difference between old post and recent post if both of the posts have a high quality? There are many good quality posts in inactive local boards.
