Suggestion: "Interesting News Articles About XXX" threads be made sticky

Most or all of the past and current WCG projects' forums have a thread called "Interesting News Articles About <the project subject>" (INAAx).
Sometimes these get scrolled off the first page of the forum's index by new threads or threads with posts newer than the last one made to the INAAx thread.
This occasionally results in a member wishing to report an interesting article not seeing the INAAx thread and starting a new separate thread.
I think the INAAx threads should be made sticky to prevent this.

I don't know how often researchers and journalists consult these threads for professional reasons, but I and many others sure find them "interesting" and I think they qualify for stickydom.

I think it's a good idea for people-like me-directly concerned by a particular illness.We dont know where a cure wud come from because so many labs work on cancers ,distrophy, tropical diseases etc.
