I checked - all 81 of your posts with the katrina tag are on the http://del.icio.us/tag/katrina pages.

There were about 20 instances when I updated extended descriptions and those entries didn't move to the top of the tag list. In other cases, they did.

The link must have dropped off the popular page because people were not bookmarking it as often over the last few days. The algorithm for the http://del.icio.us/popular/katrina page picks what to show by looking at the last few thousand links with the katrina tag - it measures recently popular rather than all-time popular.

So, here's a specific example. I added new information to the extended field for this entry:

WWLTV.com | News for New Orleans, Louisiana
The best source of news highlights from NOLA.
to hurricanekatrina katrina news media neworleans ... and 53 other people ... on 2005-09-01 ... edit / delete

After saving it, that entry does not show up at the top of my / katrina/ list or the main /tag/katrina/ list. It stayed in original post order.

My point is this: there are times when new information appears at a URL. Is only the original post date used?
