So these kind of shared at weird intervals due to some issues with Buffer scheduling. Never fear, for they are listed here!

For some reason only some of them went to G+, which is kind of annoying, but hey.

Loaded into Buffer. Michael, I'm not sure what happens now - I presume an admin schedules them for through the week? :)

RE: The flags - they have copyright issues unfortunately. It's a messy situation (the flag designs are copyrighted by their author but have been CC'd by the NZ government) I would rather avoid! 

I'll load these into Buffer then :)

Hey all,

We just published "News on Wikipedia: New Zealand selects flags, Google freshens up, and more" to the Wikimedia blog. URL: 


We plan to send out five pieces of social for this story, spread through the rest of the week to keep things timely.

Please do comment for tone.

Twitter:

• New Zealand has picked the #flags its people will vote on this year #nzflags #NewsOnWikipedia
 
 Looks good, anyway we could get a picture of all the options or copyright issues? (irony)

• What do you think of @Google's new logo? #NewsOnWikipedia
 
LGTM, obviously photo of logo. Commons will declare it PD ;)
 
• Alaska's Mount McKinley has a new name: #Denali. #NewsOnWikipedia
 
Has a new name or is getting a new name? Not sure if it's official yet. LGTM however
 
• Just the one world record set at this year's World Athletics Championships... #NewsOnWikipedia
 
LGTM
 
• Jihadist group ISIL destroyed another ancient Syrian temple this week. #NewsOnWikipedia
LGTM 

Facebook/G+:

• One of four new flags could soon represent New Zealand, and its people aren't impressed #NewsOnWikipedia
• Google have radically changed their logo for the first time since 1999. #NewsOnWikipedia 
• Forty years later, and Alaska's Mount McKinley is now Denali. #NewsOnWikipedia
• This year's World Athletics Championships medal table was topped by Kenya for the first time ever. #NewsOnWikipedia
• The ancient Temple of Bel in Syria was destroyed by jihadist group ISIL this week. #NewsOnWikipedia

best,
Joe
