For the record the post is live so these can go out at any point now (and I'm happy to do so if people like them).

Hi folks,

We just published "Wikimedia Foundation Board election results are in” on the Wikimedia blog:

http://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/06/05/board-election-results

Thanks to Gregory and James for writing this story, to Philippe and Ed for editing it with me, and to everyone else who helped get it ready for publication.

James can make any final tweaks to Workdpress as needed, now that the story is published.

Here are our proposed social media messages.

Twitter (@wikimedia/@wikipedia):

• Wikimedia Foundation Board election results are in—meet the winning candidates! @JemielniakD @WikiDocJames @vrandezo [link]


Facebook/Google+:

• The Wikimedia community has chosen three new board members for the Wikimedia Foundation: Dariusz Jemielniak, James Heilman, and Denny Vrandečić [link]

• With over 5,100 votes counted and voters from 183 individual Wikimedia projects, the election results are in: Dariusz Jemielniak, James Heilman, and Denny Vrandečić have been elected by the Wikimedia community to the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees.  [link]

Feel free to tweak as needed.

Thanks for sharing this story with our community!


Fabrice
