As a UK media contact for Wikimedia, so I get all

email. One I just got was for a demonstration/picket to be held in
London soon, from the group protesting. Let's assume I'm unable to
make it to cover it myself ... is there anywhere to put these things
for those who may be interested in going out with a notepad and
camera?
I would make a page on Wikinews with subpages for each region, people
can then watch the regions they can get to (what size each region is
is negotiable) and when it appears on their watchlist, off they go. It
would be an excellent way of getting good articles.
I have created a rough draft of such a system:
