agree  B D Finch: Though I think "in one place" is fine and more colloquial than "location".

Needs a noun


Explanation:
All you've got is a couple of adjectives - useful and urgent. We need to know what it is that is useful and urgent. Given your very limited context, it is probably "information" or "items" that is missing.

neutral  B D Finch: There is already a whole string of nouns: "news/photos/.../data".

  -> No, that's what (s)he means, not what's in the phrase. The fact that (s)he felt compelled to add the extra information is good evidence that it is missing in the original phrase.
