Yes, on further review, OCLC worldcat uses date-copyrighted, but has
no date-published, leading me to believe that it means date-published,
because they are often the same date. (An interesting table with extra
info about this is at
http://www.copyright.cornell.edu/training/Hirtle_Public_Domain.htm)

So I would also vote to remove date-copyrighted, and consider adding
it in a later revision if necessary. If no-one objects today, I'll
remove date-copyrighted and add a note pointing to this discussion.
