Hey all,
We today published "News on Wikipedia: Japan shocks the rugby world, an
earthquake strikes Chile, and more" to the Wikimedia blog. URL:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/09/29/catalonia-elections-and-supermoon/
We plan to send out five pieces of social for this story, spread through
the rest of the week to keep things timely.
Here's the proposed social - comments welcome!
*Twitter:*
• Catalonia's regional elections result in victory for pro-independence
parties #NewsOnWikipedia
LGTM
• 11 million Volkswagen diesel cars are carrying
software
#NewsOnWikipedia
This seems to cut off after software (my laptop is carrying software too
what of it :P) which is probably just a fail as you were copying it over I
imagine. Perhaps:
- 11 million Volkswagen diesel cars are carrying software designed to
fake emissions tests #NewsOnWikipedia
<https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NewsOnWikipedia>
- 11 million Volkswagen diesel cars are carrying software designed to
manipulate emissions tests #NewsOnWikipedia
<https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NewsOnWikipedia>
Not quite sure the right word to use there where fake/manipulate is but I
think both of those work
Could also adjust with a "we learn" prefix which may fit a bit better
into "this week" (obviously those cars had the software before etc) like:
- We learn 11 million Volkswagen diesel cars have software designed
to manipulate emissions tests #NewsOnWikipedia
<https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NewsOnWikipedia>
same question about fake/manipulate obviously here.
• Pope Francis (@Pontifex) made a tour of the US last week.
#NewsOnWikipedia
• At least 1,100 were killed in a stampede at the Hajj last week.
#NewsOnWikipedia
• Did you catch the #supermoon ? #NewsOnWikipedia
LGTM, like the supermoon question. I'm a personal fan of #bloodmoon but
others may have better ideas :)
[Hashtag suggestions for that last one welcome :) ]
*Facebook/G+:*
• Catalan elections have put pressure onto national parties leading up
to Spain's national elections in December. #NewsOnWikipedia
• #NewsOnWikipedia
• Pope Francis attracted crowds of thousands in New York City,
Philadelphia and Washington, DC, last week. #NewsOnWikipedia
• A stampede in Mina was the deadliest such incident since the Hajj of
1990. #NewsOnWikipedia
• If you missed Monday's "supermoon" total lunar eclipse, the next
one's
due in 2033... #NewsOnWikipedia
best,
Joe
I'm happy with all of the FB/G+ ones
