Unfortunately, it is difficult to tell which collections are brand new and which ones are updated. The asterisk is for "new or updated." I am particularly interested in new collections, for the obvious reasons.
Each one of the collections listed above has a Research Wiki page (use the "Learn more" link). It would be very useful if the Wiki page for each collection listed the dates for when the collection was added as a new collection and the major updates also.
