Fair point, Katherine - it should be said that much of the envisaged
audience for these reports consists of program leaders themselves (to
use the terminology of the report authors), and that the term GLAM -
as well as the #glamwiki hashtag - are established among them. But
let's go with your version for the benefit of the general audience,
throwing in an "etc.":
*T: Understanding what works: 7 beta reports on the impact of editathons,
collaboration with cultural institutions, etc.

Hi guys,
I'm going to be the stand-in persona for someone who knows nothing about
WMF programs. I would have no idea what GLAM is! May I suggest:
t: Understanding what works: 7 beta reports on the impact of editathons
and collaboration with cultural institutions.

I was going to ask if "beta" is important in this context.
Is there a #GLAM that they use? I know that they love their GLAMness, but I
do think it's good to use actual words for the sentence.
FB/G: LGTM, there's plenty of contextual information there that situates
shorthands like GLAM clearly.

FB/G+: Read preliminary reports on the impact of seven kinds of
program activities supporting Wikimedia projects: Edit-a-thons,
editing workshops, GLAM partnerships, on-wiki writing contests, Wiki
Loves Monuments, other photo contests (like Wiki Loves Earth), and the
Wikipedia Education Program.

as uploaded image - since it's (c) by a WMF staff member.)
The team wants to emphasize the beta nature of the results, so I
forwent that shortening opportunity.
