We've still only had the two posts (one each for Twitter/Facebook).I believe that we're tracking likes and shares now, Alex, but it's hard to gauge community participation. The Signpost, for instance, gets plenty of comments because it's on-wiki and everyone has an account there. Perhaps the requirement for a WordPress account is too high a bar?Spam is a real issue with stuff like this, and I think social media allows for easy enough commenting?Joe_______________________________________________--EdOn Mon, Jul 6, 2015 at 1:16 PM, Alex Stinson <astinson@wikimedia.org> wrote:Glad to see the post shared! Love it!It occurs to me as someone who has written several blog posts, and supported several others: I am always dis-appointed a bit on the number of comments on the blog post itself: but it seems that a lot of the commenting/visibility will happen elsewhere. Is there a way to surface both page views on the blog alongside number of likes/retweets, etc. I think it would be great to get a sense of scale for community participation in reading/hearing the stories on the platform itself (and maybe provide a different incentive structure/invitation for participating in the blog, by marking shares/retweets, etc as valid responses to the post).Cheers,Alex StinsonOn Wed, Jul 1, 2015 at 9:52 AM, Michael Guss <mguss@wikimedia.org> wrote:Furthermore, we'll be consistently resharing stories from now on.On Wed, Jul 1, 2015 at 9:50 AM, Michael Guss <mguss@wikimedia.org> wrote:Good morning,The following has been shared:On Tue, Jun 30, 2015 at 9:55 PM, Ed Erhart <eerhart@wikimedia.org> wrote:--EdSometime, Michael, you're going to have to miss a beat ... ... but it will not be this day. :-)
