You might want to ask Suggest Bot users to try it out.
My suspicion would be that more people will be interested on articles
related to topics they cover than ones in sources they can read. But both
approaches may have their users, and the experience of SuggestBot would be
worth learning from.

Hi folks -
Our research team at Carleton College has just launched a new tool that
recommends Wikipedia articles to edit based on news that you're interested
in. Most news sites have Twitter or RSS feeds that update as new articles
are published. wikiFeed (our tool) invites editors to put in their
preferred news sources' Twitter or RSS feeds - from politics to pop
culture, or whatever - and finds the most relevant Wikipedia articles to
edit based on that content.
We're trying to conduct a study on the how well wikiFeed works, and would
love it if you or students of yours could sign up, try it, and continue
using it if they find it useful. Can you pass the word along, and/or try it
yourself if you're interested?
Here's our website:

Thanks for your help!

This is awesome. Is the source available, or at least some documentation
of your architecture?
