Well hacks tend to be simple and mods can be complex which makes quite a big difference if you want to write an interesting article. Most hacks involved changing stats like how fast you can run, unlimited lives, etc. They were really trainers.

However you want to see it, there weren't many editors back then so, unless we mostly look at the late 90's and early part of the 21st century, we'll quickly run out of material.

That's not to say we can't have at least a few articles but I fear we'll run out of material soon. It's quite hard these days to find old mods as well. I still have a bunch of ancient Doom & Duke 3D CDs that are filled with old mods but that's about it. Most of these are maps, extra sounds, etc. so I dunno if that would even translate well to an article.
