I would expect the number of (e.g.) people in Sweden following Wikipedia would be significantly greater than the number of people following Wikimedia Sweden - so that shows there would be a benefit in doing as Jan suggests?

(Not to pick on WMSE, I assume the same would be true for most countries!)

Well doing it on facebook is easy because we can target the post to Sweden specifically (would it make sense to target it to surrounding countries as well?).

I personally don't have a big issue with a tweet about it, especially if we can pull a blog post out of you or something as well ;) but I can see an argument for just doing a retweet from a post you do on the WikimediaSE twitter account.

Thoughts from others?

Hello,

We are having a photo contest during the summer where you can compete in all of Sweden. Would that be considered to local for @wikimedia/@wikipedia to mention?

The contest is described here (in English and Swedish):  https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:D%C3%A5_och_Nu

Best regards,
