Personally I'd say it's enough context for Twitter at the very least and probably Facebook. It isn't perfect but it's not bad and there isn't a whole lot more context in the article itself so it will draw the right people.
If we wanted more context on Facebook we could do something like:
- • There are big plans for the Content Translation tool over the next few months making it easier to translate Wikipedia articles from one language to another. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/08/13/content-translation-wikimania-2015/
Not sure if needed but YMMV

That’s a good point - I’m not sure it will be clear to folks exactly what “the Content Translation tool" is.

I'm not sure how effective the hashtag would be, since the period's kind of gone at this point, but worth doing anyway.
Do you guys think there's enough context to just write "the Content Translation tool"?

I suggest adding a hashtag before Wikimania - #Wikimania

Hey all,
This seems to have missed the social list, so here it is now for your review!
We published "Content Translation updates from Wikimania 2015" to the blog. URL:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/08/13/content-translation-wikimania-2015/
Many thanks to Runa for this post.
Below are some proposed social media messages. Please tweak as needed.
*Twitter (@wikipedia/@wikimedia):*• Learn about Content Translation developments from Wikimania 2015 in Mexico. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/08/13/content-translation-wikimania-2015/
LGTM, was originally thinking of linking the @wikimania2015 account but not sure how useful that is for now... so I think I'd leave it like this
*Facebook/Google+:*• There are big plans for the Content Translation tool over the next few months. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/08/13/content-translation-wikimania-2015/
