Hello everyone,
Late to the thread, apologies. There has been quite a bit of interest in what I call the "surfacing" of the content from the English Wikipedia homepage as of recent, and I wholeheartedly agree this is a fine idea. Personally, I've been experimenting with our accounts for the reception of "extremely" interesting Wikipedia articles, brought to light by the wonderful people at the Wikipedia subreddit and the Cool Freaks Wikipedia group, and some other sources (which pass the test of being non-offensive, culturally insensitive, or anything which would render a nasty media mention, etc.). That said, I believe we have some "competition" on Twitter with an account called
"Wikipedia's DYK" - this is ran by a community member?
The #DidYouKnow is mostly them, but #DYK is far more popular. But that's Twitter.
The editorial curation will need to be figured out I think. Ed, Joe, Andrew myself are working on that, but we invite everyone to offer their opinion, suggestions, comments, insights!
