I usually use @Wikimedia as that handle is then defined "The official account of the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit that operates @Wikipedia." Would work for tweets from @Wikipedia. Not sure if that would be weird coming from @Wikimedia :)On Tue, Aug 4, 2015 at 9:45 AM, Joe Sutherland <jsutherland@wikimedia.org> wrote:Sure, can do. The counter argument to that is that we probably shouldn't use "Wikimedia" to refer to the Foundation, since really it refers to the whole movement. We can use Wikimedia Foundation, though.JoeOn 4 August 2015 at 17:43, Yana Welinder <ywelinder@wikimedia.org> wrote:Nice! If we are doing a second tweet about this, I'd advise against abbreviating "Wikimedia" as "WMF" as it's not very well-known outside a small circle of people.--On Tue, Aug 4, 2015 at 9:00 AM, Joe Sutherland <jsutherland@wikimedia.org> wrote:We've shared:On 4 August 2015 at 16:05, Joe Sutherland <jsutherland@wikimedia.org> wrote:I think avoiding tags (in favour of using an image) would be the best idea.

Do we want to include the speakers' twitter handles so that they retweet it to their followers? If so, here they are: @PamelaSamuelson @LilaBaileyLaw @dreamword @melvingibbs @yanatweetsFeel free to leave me out if you run out of characters. I'll retweet it regardless. :)Hmm, I give some options below (even without mentioning you it's too long without adjustment) but I'd actually stay away from mentions given how many there are. I just think the tweet itself starts to become so cluttered it's hard to use and understand for the average reader. That would end up with 5-6 different links in the tweet which is pretty rough.On Mon, Aug 3, 2015 at 4:49 PM, Joe Sutherland <jsutherland@wikimedia.org> wrote:Hey all,

- Both LGTM, personally I'd avoid mentions (picking just 1 or 2 to mention isn't fair and all 4-5 makes it very cluttered) and go with the 2nd one but I'm happy with both :). If we want to do the mentions then we'd probably have to take #1 and adjust it for length. Some options below.
