Hey all,
We just published "News on Wikipedia: Explosions in China, Brazilian protests, and more" to the Wikimedia blog. URL:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/ 2015/08/19/chinese-explosions-brazilian-protests/
We plan to send out five pieces of social for this story, spread through the rest of the week to keep things timely.
Please do comment for tone - this is quite a morbid week...
*Twitter:*
• Thai police are seeking a suspect following a bomb blast in Bangkok. #NewsOnWikipedia • Tens of thousands took part in protests across Brazil on Sunday. #NewsOnWikipedia
Both LGTM. You use 200k in the piece and so I don't think would be out of line to use hundreds of thousands but adit it's "low" hundreds.
• Massive explosions in Tianjin, China, killed over a hundred people last
week. #NewsOnWikipedia • Why were Jordan Spieth and Jason Day celebrating this week? #NewsOnWikipedia • Indonesia tragically suffered its third-most deadly plane crash in eight months on Sunday. #NewsOnWikipedia
Tianjin and Golf posts LGTM. The third-most deadly in 8 months piece ... feels odd to me. Perhaps "Indonesia tragically suffered another deadly plane crash [last] Sunday. #NewsOnWikipedia https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NewsOnWikipedia" (last being used depending on when in the week we post this) or "Indonesia tragically suffered a 3rd deadly plane crash in 8 months last Sunday. #NewsOnWikipedia https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NewsOnWikipedia" (only issue I have here is that there might be more then 3 in the past 8 months)
*Facebook/G+:*
• A bomb blast at a shrine in Bangkok on Monday killed 23 people. #NewsOnWikipedia • Protests in all 26 Brazilian states on Sunday called for President Rousseff's impeachment. #NewsOnWikipedia • Last week's explosions in Tianjin, China, were so massive they could be seen from space. #NewsOnWikipedia • 22-year-old Jordan Spieth became golf's new number one this week—but he didn't win on Sunday. #NewsOnWikipedia • A 45-minute domestic flight in Indonesia ended tragically this week. #NewsOnWikipedia
All of these LGTM :)
