The official date came from the help menu (its official location).
But I noticed also that some files had more recent dates, the
most recent was in Oct. 88.  Evidently these changes were not
strong enough to warrant being an official change.

My copy of WP is (as ad copy would say) factory fresh from
Orem UT.

[But let's start a war over revision dates.  Anything would
be preferable to the continuing piracy thread.  Uh Oh, I
hear beeping, I see flashing, "you have hate mail!"]
