Hi. Just wanted to clarify the difficulty with the page you submitted. Wikinews publishes articles about events that are current at the time of publication, "snapshots in time" of what events looked like when they had just happened. An article about something that happens every year, or about something that happened several years ago, is the sort of thing that goes in an encyclopedia; there's no particular reason why such an article shouldn't continue to be edited and improved indefinitely, and that's a clue that it's not news. There's a compact overview of what we do at Wikinews at page WN:Pillars of Wikinews writing. Then, there's a good tutorial on writing an article for Wikinews at WN:Writing an article. :-) --Pi zero (talk) 13:01, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
