It's an ongoing genocide last I checked, and this news from 4 months ago is highly relevant to what's happening right now.
I don’t think that you understand what we are trying to say. This community is for current world news. As in, current articles. An old article being related to current events is not what belongs in worldnews.
Why isn't that in the sidebar, then?
You’re right, but let us use our heads for a moment:
When someone hears worldnews, they think current articles, not potentially outdated articles.
This article belonged on worldnews four months ago.
I think old news can become news again when new developments occur.
What I'll give you is that OP should have included those new developments in the body of the link, so that this conversation wouldn't have to happen down in the comment section. I don't think they were wrong to post it without that context, but it would have avoided our bickering.
