Which policy do you use in your Wikipedia about recent
events?
Do you establish a fixed time (i.e 30 days) to accept new articles
for them? Or do you analyze every single case?
I ask for this rule because some articles are written in
journalistic style and could be not acceptable for Wikipedia and I'm
investigating in which way other Wikipedias solve this problem.
There's no specific rules about them, as far as I know. When an
article is too journalistic in style, it gets edited to a more
acceptable one in time, or it gets nominated for deletion. However,
that has nothing to do with being about a recent event. If someone
does the same with an event from 1930s, it will be treated the same
way.
