I proposed a good deal of these because I'd like to start socializing our articles more than once each (as discussed in our Monday meeting)—more so for the picks and news, but at least twice here.

On the Twitter suggestion, how about this? 80 hours finding sources, who knows how long reading them, and 300 hours writing: one person, one article. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/06/30/improving-wikipedia-texas-revolution/

Twitter (@wikimedia/@wikipedia):

• This #Wikipedia editor devoted hundreds of hours to one article.

• Two women are taking the lead on improving #Wikipedia's articles on the #Texas Revolution. Here's one of them.

• Ever wonder why #Wikipedia's articles on the #Texas Revolution are so good?

• 80 hours identifying sources, who knows how long reading them, and 300 hours of writing. And that's just one person.

I love the last one but would love to incorporate the  1 article piece too I think that resonates. How about:

• 80 hours finding sources, who knows how long reading them, and 300 hours writing. And that's just 1 person 1 article https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/06/30/improving-wikipedia-texas-revolution/
  
• Note: Removed the period at the end of the 2nd sentence... just to keep it in limit

Facebook/Google+:

• This #Wikipedia editor devoted hundreds of hours to one article.

• Ever wonder why #Wikipedia's articles on the #Texas Revolution are so good? 80 hours identifying sources, an untold number of hours reading them, and 300 hours of writing. That's just one of the people who worked on it.

• 80 hours identifying sources, an untold number of hours reading them, and 300 hours of writing. And that's just one of the people who worked on it.

thanks,
