Hi Katherine,

Yes, the downside is having several mistakes. The article number, the gender numbers (90% female is right but this applies to the last two terms not the last workshop as they said), they referred to me as a Wikipedia ambassador though we have exchanged so many emails signed with my title (WMF comms intern), referring to may as a workshop leader which is a title we don't have at all, and etc. Any way, it was great to have this coverage for the program even if with some mistakes. I don't personally recommend that we mention anything about these mistakes in the SM messages. what do you think? 

+1 for indicating the segment!

I have shared it with the Grantmaking team and the global ed team of course. Thank you for sharing it with the C-level list too!

And thank you, Katherine for all what you did for us to help this work done! :)

We'll want to be specific about the segment starting at 4:08 and ending at 6:47. 

Congratulations team -- only a few mistakes in there ;) (4 million articles, 22 million editors)

Samir, have you shared yet with the Global Ed/Grantmaking team?

Hi Samir,

I totally agree - we could share this on our social media accounts. 

Your proposed tweet looks good to me. 

I'll start a new thread for approval for alternative copy to promote this great feature.

Hello everyone,

The episode is now available on youtube in English and Arabic and 11 other languages. Do you recommend sharing  the links on our SM channels?

I have shared it on the Arab World Ed Program page on fb. Here: https://www.facebook.com/arwep/posts/517899781684382?fref=nf

Can we share the same post or modify it, make the English before the Arabic for example, and post it to fb/g+?? Other suggestions to make the post look better?

for twitter we can have a shorter post like:
t: Watch @euronews_LW episode covering one of Wikipedia Education Program workshops in Cairo http://youtu.be/JiuDnxrlpLo
Arabic tweet for the Arabic episode: شاهدوا حلقة يورونيوز وتغطيتهم لإحدى ورش برنامج ويكيبيديا للتعليم في القاهرة http://youtu.be/y9GdOm8bCrg

Thank you!
Samir

Hi Juliet, 

Thanks for your reply!

The episode is about the open-source use to develop education.. also they talked about quality content and closing the gender gap during the interviews.

I hope this helps.

Hello everyone,

In case you don't know this already, Euronews has filmed an episode of its weekly show learning world about Wikipedia Education Program in Egypt. This episode will be aired next Friday. I think it would be nice if we post SM messages to promote the episode so that our followers wait for it. We can also post a youtube link to the video on our SM channels when we get it on Friday. As for now I have prepared the following messages to promote it in advance:

F/G+: Meet the people who stand behind the success of Wikipedia Education Program in Egypt on Euronews this Friday. Watch this week's episode of the weekly program Learning World on Friday at 4:45 PM UTC. You can watch it on the Euronews channel or online on this link:
