I was thinking it'd be a great idea to have a meta tag for classics of the furry Fandom, standard would be if it's 10+ years old and is considered an iconic classic.

Tag could be Fandom_classic, Furry_Classic, or just Classic.

Examples off the top of my head would be:

There's already a year tag group.

Optionally, since years aren't always tagged, use these:

I know that, but that's not what I'm suggesting here

This might be better off as a set if you want to make one, since everyone's going to have different feelings about what's "iconic" and nostalgic to them personally

Potentially

I mean, if you really want the most iconic posts, there's always order:score_asc.

_{...although the real most iconic post is gone now.}

And most infamous! Still got 6911, though. You're probably better off not looking that up.

Any objectively defined tag would have to substantiate a claim to be an "iconic classic", preferably by quoting multiple later works that directly reference it. By my count, only two of your examples meet that criterion, and the rest are just comics or animations you found funny.

Also it wouldn't contain Ashchu or cheese grater so what's even the point

The examples I chose were images and animations that were popular back when I was entering the Fandom in the early 2010's
