Hey all,
In an effort to keep social feeds active, I'm going to suggest some social media based on recently promoted Featured Articles on the English Wikipedia[0].
• Did you know that Fremantle Prison is a recognised heritage site? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fremantle_Prison • 2015 American Triple Crown winner American Pharoah's name is no typo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Pharoah • Serpens is the only one of the 88 modern constellations to be split in two disconnected regions of sky. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serpens • Did you know the Inuits use three stars to navigate with? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ursa_Minor • Archaeologists still don't really know what Chetro Ketl was built for. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chetro_Ketl
Hopefully these could be scheduled into Buffer to keep things active and fresh.
