At the beginning of every month, it is customary to archive the [[Current events]] and [[Current sports events]] pages by moving them to a suitably named month (for example, [[June 2004]] or [[June 2004 in sports]]). This makes the original pages redirects, which can then be edited to record the new month's events. Moving the original pages ensures the [[Wikipedia:page history|page history]] is saved with the month, and provides a fresh history each month. It also keeps the log of older versions manageably small.

Line 12 ⟶ 10:

# Create a redirect from [[July 2004]] or [[July 2004 in sports]] to [[Current events]] or [[Current sports events]] as appropriate.

# Edit last month's article, [[June 2004]] or [[June 2004 in sports]], to reflect the fact that it's no longer current. This means replacing the time/date with a list of the months in the year, linking to the appropriate events/sports events articles in each case.
