Hi Maria,

happy to help promoting this. A few points inline:

Hi all, 
The Learning & Evaluation Team is promoting the first of 3 webinars, hosted by Jonathan Morgan, about tools and APIs for research on Wikimedia programs. I have posted proposed tweets on the calendar on Meta for today (July 1st), and I am also sharing those here.

Event link:

Should this be shared on Google+ too, or just Twitter?

Yes, please, Google+ as well. I don't know if you can tag us there, but this is our page: 
https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/117126229120807344920/117126229120807344920/
 
 
Short link (by Ow.ly)[1]:

SM Calendar:



* t: @WikiEval team goes beyond #Wikimetrics: join the 1st #webinar (07/16) on tools and #APIs to collect data about programs!

* t: There's more to #data than #Wikimetrics. Join @WikiEval 's webinars on tools and APIs to collect data! First one: July 16
These two seem to be above the character limit for Twitter (117 characters + the https://... link). Also, starting a tweet with an "@" will make it appear as a reply to that account, and not show up in (e.g.) the main timeline. How about something like this:

* T: There's more than #Wikimetrics. On July 16, join @WikiEval's first webinar on tools and APIs for evaluation data

This looks good to me! Thanks for re-writing. 
 
 
 

[1] I use short link versions on our account 90% of times because I think it might track more clicks. Please feel free to comment on this! Would love to hear other views. 
We usually avoid these so as to stay reasonably close to the privacy expectations people have from the wikis. (I'm not too familiar with ow.ly's capacities, but if they are similar to bit.ly, I could very well imagine this to be of practical relevance here, as in "oh look, that one person we know from Madagascar clicked on our link too".) For tracking click numbers only, Twitter's own stats features should be sufficient; we could share that number with you in this case.

Ok it would be fantastic to have the stats after the week. I actually only use ow.ly to shorten URLs, and use Twitter's own stats after your first suggestion =)

 
 

Thanks!
