Thanks very much for the initiative, Cornelius. I would like to encourage those who are comfortable doing so and who know of Wikimedians to have passed on to report the passages on *The Signpost*'s Newsroom talk page <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Wikipedia_Signpost/Newsroom> even if the contributors did not contribute to English Wikipedia, and/or on Wikimedia-l, in addition to reporting the passages on local pages such as those listed on https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q4655446. (Thank you for the link, Quiddity.)
