Soliciting edits to historical articles
Wikinews articles are not works in progress and are intended to be a record of what was known at the time. Key to this is that titles remain as they were when the article was initially published on the front page.

Corrections are never made to reflect changes that took place subsequent to the article's publication. To give an example verging on hyperbole, the New York Times does not edit archives of their papers from the start of last century to avoid using the phrase "Armenian Massacre" - no matter how much the current Turkish government would like them to.

If an article contained clearly inaccurate information at time of publication then a correction notice may be added, I see no need for one in the case you are petitioning. --Brian McNeil / talk 17:04, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
