Wikipedia Signpost report: WikiProject Cities
t: So how did Stephens City, Virginia make the Featured Article on English
Wikipedia? Find out about WikiProject
Cities:https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/06/26/wikipedia-signpost-report-wiki…
Works for inducing curiosity, but the post doesn't say a lot about
this specific question....
t: WikiProject Cities has the gargantuan task of
providing up-to-date
information for cities around the globe:

I like this one. Perhaps modify a bit as follows:
How WikiProject Cities tackles the gargantuan task of providing
up-to-date information on cities around the globe:
t: How do articles on cities around the world stay
up-to-date? WikiProject
Cities, that's how. Find out more:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/06/26/wikipedia-signpost-report-wikiproject…
Really strictly speaking, there also editors updating city articles
who are not aware of WikiProject Cities... But we can let that slide
for the purpose of a tweet ;) I would suggest to add a "Wikipedia",
though:
How do Wikipedia articles on cities around the world stay up-to-date?
WikiProject Cities, that's how. Find out more:
t: “I was responsible for getting Kent, Ohio to Featured Article status." An
interview with 2 WikiProject
contributors:https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/06/26/wikipedia-signpost-repor…
Might work too, but I would prefer the previous two.
f/g: Interested in cities and motivated by the desire
to produce more
articles in a standardized format, Student7 and JonRidinger saw WikiProject
Cities as an opportunity to contribute to articles they were passionate
about.
