Can handmade items be listed with Vintage as first tag?

Looks like Mary is back to the old line of "Please do not call out other members of the Etsy community" crap even though there was no direct calling out being done here.

Not only was the lock on this thread totally unnecessary, but Mary gave incorrect information in her locking post.
She said "Items tagged with Vintage as their first tag should not be handmade or hand altered."

Sorry but that is plain nonsense. Many vintage items are handmade, just not handmade by the seller. Well actually I am old enough that some things I have made could be vintage but I was thinking more like quilts my grandmother made, etc. Vintage is anything made 20 years ago or more, it can be handmade or machine made or made by space monkeys. It just has to be old.
