Hey all,

We just published "How Wikipedia responds to breaking news" to the blog. URL:

Below are some proposed social media messages. Please tweak as needed.

Twitter (@wikipedia/@wikimedia):
• How does Wikipedia respond to breaking news? http://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/08/17/wikipedia-breaking-news/

 Looks good overall, happy with this if you'd prefer but perhaps a bit of an answer to tease them (like below)? perhaps:

• How does Wikipedia respond to breaking news? Awfully like a newsroom it turns out. http://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/08/17/wikipedia-breaking-news/
  

Facebook/Google+:
• "Overall, the study shows that Wikipedia works on breaking news much like a traditional newsroom—verifiability is held in high regard, and a 'core group' of editors tend to contribute a vast majority of the content." http://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/08/17/wikipedia-breaking-news/

LGTM
