Hi all
I was asked by my chapter to promote Wikimedia Poland using Diaspora
network. Apparently it is quite popular among people related to open
education in Poland and it might be a good idea to try to reach to them
using this site.
I'm not very familiar with Diaspora so I would really appreciate some
advice on that. Does anyone here have any experience with using this
network to promote Wikimedia projects? Did you find it useful or not
really? Are there any tips or/and stories you would like to share?

Hey all,
We just published "News on Wikipedia: New exoplanet discovered, Tour de
France concludes, and more" to the Wikimedia blog. URL:

We plan to send out five pieces of social for this story, spread through
the next *three days* (or thereabouts) to keep things timely.
Please do comment for tone.

Hey all,
We just published "Wikipedia Picks: a ‘bad-boy’ bishop and expensive
tulips" to the blog. URL:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/07/27/bad-bishop-and-expensive-tulips/
Many thanks to Ed and Victoria for this post.
Below are some proposed social media messages. Please tweak as needed.
*Twitter (@wikipedia/@wikimedia):*
• "This is the epitome of a bad-boy bishop."
• Monroe Edwards was a modern-day Catch Me If You Can, albeit much less
successful.
• Han van Meegeren once sold a forged painting to a Nazi high official.
• That time when they paid thousands for a single tulip bulb.
• How much would you pay for a tulip bulb?
