Now, if there are stories that predate the header format, then we may have issues.
If memory serves, there are about 400 stories on the Archive without the header, but on the plus side, they don't have a rating listed either.

I took over the Archive in the summer of 1997, so any story uploaded in September 1997 and beyond has the standard header format with the rating and submission date. Any story that doesn't was uploaded before then.

As for this ratings thing, I agree we should wait until we actually get a cease-and-desist letter before we panic, but I think considering options ahead of time isn't a bad idea. Would something like "FIC-G", "FIC-PG", etc., be sufficient? It certainly would be the most straight-forward option.
