    3. Part of that is because to request a photo, you first have to create a memorial. I have lots of ancestors and their siblings that I know from other records when they were born or died. Ancestors and their siblings are the only people for whom I have created memorials (in order to get a photo). So, the memorial is created with full dates. Later, when someone takes a picture (I still have some photo requests from 5 years ago that haven't been filled), if it only has years, and not full dates, I don't edit the memorial to years only.

That, of course, is still a valuable clue that can lead to obituaries, death certificates, etc.
