Hi,looking at https://www.debian.org/index.html , I see the text "No items for this year." after the news items on the page. I would not expect this text to appear since there are news items from this year.
This looks like it happens in a call to "get_top_news" in https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/-/blob/master/english/template/debian/recent_list.wml
