I certainly think you should be selective though you've been doing this long enough I don't think we need to go through a very lengthy process for it. I would be happy with either a notification to the list or a short window to wait for objections (I'm thinking an hour or two at most). In the end more content like this could be very useful on the handles and removing some barriers to doing so for appropriate content and people who we know to be selective in when/how they do it is a very low hanging fruit way to do it :).

Glad we agree on the need to be discerning regarding tweets about
single studies...

Having heard no objection against this last newsletter tweet, I have
now retweeted it from @wikimedia, following our general four-eyes
principle (that tweet had been crafted by Dario). These may on
occasion also be suitable for @wikipedia, but that would need to be
looked at on a case-by-case basis.
