Do you keep something like topic pages in your personal wiki or how do you keep track of these? Just really quick and efficient searching when you remember something has been discussed before? Maybe even some Google Chrome extension to insert story title + link + date + # of comments from submission links into the comment field?

Nope, I just use HN search (hn.algolia.com) but I have software that makes it faster and does the formatting - yes, it's a browser extension that I've been using for moderation and adding to for, gosh, coming up on 9 years this fall. See https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27236708 and the other links there for more information if interested.

I'm going to make it so any HN links to past threads will render as "title - link - month-year - # of comments" or something similar.

One of these years I'll publish the browser extension too, and the Arc-over-JS implementation it's written in.
