A thin black bar that occasionally appears with no context is pretty information-sparse imo.

Look at every other venue for black bars... sports, military, flags at half mast... they never have a person's name on them. That just isn't how it's done.

Just making it clickable to link to the relevant post would be enough IMO. I never knew the black bar principle myself. Assuming knowledge is not the way to go.
