IMHO, whether to use temporal coordinates (where available) should be left to authors' judgment. Some authors diligently monitor the relevant Wikipedia pages. For symmetric citations, I'd note that Mediawiki recognizes inline references to RFCs[1] and that Wikipedia has a "Cite IETF"[2] template. There seems to be room for tighter cooperation...
