> get from the headlines to Wikipedia as fast as possible
This is the way. I treat news headlines as a list of recommendations for which Wikipedia articles to read today. I have even built my own archive of Wikipedia's "Current Events" pages[1] to make this process as seamless as possible, and skip all the non-news garbage that news websites tend to be infested with.

- tmikaeld 3y agoThat's awesome! I'll be consuming this from now on, combined with newsminimalist.com . Should cover 99% of what I want to know. Can you add RSS feed to pastevents.org? That would be even better!
- p-e-w 3y agoI've thought about adding RSS for a while, but have not yet settled on how this would interact with the filtering and sorting functions. I believe a feed would be especially useful if it could be constrained to events matching specific keywords.
