Thank you for this good lesson.
Since I have been doing Site Comments I am automatically redoing old posts.
I have this system which is the same for both my websites.
I make a list with all the posts that only have 2 comments. I start with the oldest and check if all is ok, add some more information, a book, and take care it has some links and also a backlink at the bottom.
When all is ok I ask for comments. Like that, I work myself up to the newest post. Then I will start a new list of posts which only have 4 comments.
Like this, I have been rotating everything and I am happy with the result.

I am a big believer of repurposing content yes. Not so much republishing.
