For twitter, we do have admin access @wikicommons.
So, we should phrase also for @wikicommons
@wikicommons: Thank you so much @wellcomelibrary for your incredible donation of 100,000 images of medical history! https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Files_from_Wellcome_Images
we should RT to disperse across our Twitter audiences, so we'll rt from @wikimedia, @wikipedia.
Back for the blog story,
I would tweak it to not have that awkward space between the twitter handle and the exclamation mark.
The @wellcomelibrary donates 100,000 medical images to @wikicommons - bringing medical history to life for everyone! https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/01/20/wellcome-library-donation/
from @wikimedia, @wikipedia
Then, since Fae was so instrumental in this momentous donation, we should thank her.
@wikicommons: Incredible work @Faewiki with @welcomelibrary - thank you so much!
RT from @wikimedia, @wikipedia

The Wellcome Library donates 100,000 medical images to Wikimedia Commons. The high resolution photographs and scans are used on Wikipedia to illustrate a wide range of topics -- such as disease, art history, cartoons, sexuality and biographies. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/01/20/wellcome-library-donation/
This looks fine to me.
Same for Twitter, we do have access to Wikimedia Commons so we should post the above there as well.
We could post also from G+ with the same copy, then reshare it.

Good evening social media angels,
We just published a blog post about the recent donation of 100,000 medical images to Wikimedia Commons:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/01/20/wellcome-library-donation/
It’s an uplifting story about all the hard work that Fae and Commons volunteers devote to bring new libraries of rich multimedia content to our knowledge base.
I published the story this evening, so that Fae and Wellcome can promote right it away in the UK, during their daytime hours — I also wanted to get a head start now, since many of us will be tied up tomorrow at the all-staff WMF offsite. :)
Here are some ideas for how to spread the word on social networks:
Twitter (@wikimedia/@wikipedia):

Facebook/Google+

Please help us get the word out about this story :)
Thanks!
