I'm confident that we could come up with other examples of "date 
accessed" use in the wild, as it's very much a requirement of academic 
citations of potentially-transient resources, such as web pages, 
regardless of that page's likelihood to change.

I haven't seen much need for "date-copyrighted," so I'd second removing 
that one from an initial spec.

This is the case with many American magazines to which I subscribe as 
well, for what it's worth.
