Category talk:Contemporary history timelines

unsigned and undated comment (prior to October 2011)
This page was created as a place to categorize lists that are in the Recent Events section of List of themed timelines. Presumably these are events that are recent, but not current.

what is criteria for "recent"?
this category needs some guidance. what is wikipedia community's definition of "recent"? last week? last month? last year? last decade? --96.232.126.111 (talk) 21:59, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree. I would say, last decade is recent.  I'll remove any that are over 10 years ago. Jeancey (talk) 17:47, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
