How can we inform the public of "stub pages" and the ability to start your own article any time?
Maybe one of these news stories will spark a new article and we can report on it. This leads into us mentioning the ability to create your own article.

I'm liking these ITN posts, because they help to show that Wikipedia is a work in progress. Is there a way of expanding the scope of these posts to encourage people to edit? Or perhaps that could be a separate campaign?

Round 2: Let's get the Confederate flag story out of the way before it's too old.
Twitter (@wikipedia/@wikimedia): • South Carolina voted to remove the Confederate battle flag last week. [link]
Facebook/G+: • The Confederate battle flag had been on display for 54 years. Last week, it was taken down. [link]
