Proposed SM for global WLM winners
by Tilman Bayer 25 Dec '14

25 Dec '14

There were thoughts about a post for the Wikimedia blog, but I guess that at this point it's unlikely it would materialize before next week (and http://www.wikilovesmonuments.org/ doesn't have one either). So I would like to go ahead for now with a link to the winners page on Commons and the press release: >From @wikicommons, RT from @wikipedia and @wikimedia: Winners from this year's edition of the world's largest photo contest: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2014_winners#mediav… Announcement: https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Press_releases/Winners_Announced_in_Wo… #WikiLovesMonuments FB/G+: (main link: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_Loves_Monuments_2014_winners#mediav… ) See the winners from this year's edition of the world's largest photo contest!

Proposed social media for #Edit2014 coverage reshares #1
by Michael Guss 25 Dec '14

25 Dec '14

Hello everyone, here is the first of a couple of emails pertaining to reposting/resharing coverage from around the world about #Edit2014 to disperse on our social media accounts. Here is the first candidate. Here is the news story from Astro Awani (Malaysia) - http://www.astroawani.com/videos/show/kini-trending/kompilasi-suntingan-wik… Featuring the Malaysia news story works well for our tone on our social media accounts (particularly on Facebook) I believe. I think it is a good idea to do a series of posts featuring all the press coverage from around the world, demonstrating the multiplicity of reception and being cognizant of of the multiplicity of cultures of our users and followers (and targeting demos, FB reports followers from Malaysia at 32,977. @501Awani also has 311,996 followers.) Thanks for reviewing! *#Edit 2014 on Astro AWANI* t: #Edit2014 from Malaysia @501Awani http://www.astroawani.com/videos/show/kini-trending/kompilasi-suntingan-wik… t: The world is watching. Malaysia's @501Awani covers #Edit2014 http://www.astroawani.com/videos/show/kini-trending/kompilasi-suntingan-wik… t: #Edit2014 is taking a world tour.

Polish Christmas Carols on the Wikimedia Blog
by Fabrice Florin 25 Dec '14

25 Dec '14

Hi everyone, I have been helping Victor publish his uplifting story on Polish Christmas Carols, which is now posted here: http://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/12/23/christmas-carols-by-wikimedia-poland/ Here are our proposed social media messages for this story: Twitter (@wikimedia/@wikipedia) Volunteers record Polish Christmas Carols to share on Wikipedia. (link) or: Free professionally-recorded Christmas carols by Wikimedia Poland (link) Facebook/Google+ • A few years ago, Polish Wikimedia volunteer Borys Kozielski noticed a lack of musical and audio recordings in many Wikipedia articles. To fill this need, he led a group of musicians to record Polish Christmas Carols and upload them to Wikimedia Commons. Now many families in Poland and around the world can experience -- even sing -- these traditional holiday chants. --> Please let us know if you have any comments, questions or suggestions. Happy holidays, everyone! Fabrice _______________________________ Fabrice Florin Product Manager Wikimedia Foundation https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/User:Fabrice_Florin_(WMF)
