A year is the expiration date on reposts of items that _have_ had significant discussion. Items which did not have significant discussion, and also did not have a large quantity of reposts already are exempt. In some cases the mods have reached out to submitters and suggested they repost items which the mods felt were interesting but did not catch on.
