Oskar Schindler, subject of the film "Schindler's List," died on this day
in 1974. I found it interesting to read about the real person, having seen
the movie. Should we do social posts linking to his article page?

Fast feedback welcome. This has been drafted a bit.
We need your help raising awareness about a Wikipedian who may be in danger
in Syria. Bassel Khartabil worked to document the ancient monuments now
being destroyed in Palmyra. His wife reports that Bassel has been taken to
an undisclosed location by the Syrian military. Please "like" or share this
post and see our blog linked below for more information on how to help.

Being a Chicagoan, I have to suggest this one (with an outer-space angle).
IDK if we should add the part about an Irish immigrant to the United states
