It would speed things up for one, since many people are active, and go through there a lot, and even post that it should be used. Sometimes decent ones die down, and isn't put on, due to the Admin either skipping it, or just thinking it isn't great.
I'm not saying "Hurr admin u suk" but I think that it could save some time. There are users who would like to help, find topics with interesting facts (and of course linking the topics, so the person who found it can be credited), PM them to the Admin, and he can check them and it'd be easier.
Although I'm not saying he should just stop checking the threads in general, I just think it'd be faster for him.
