OK, just including the handle by itself seemed a bit too minimalist/ambiguous to me, but on reflection that may be better than leaving Cory out completely. And rewording verbatim quotes without indicating the changes is a bit weird, but on Twitter that's probably defensible. So:
@wikimedia, RT from @wikipedia: "Is there any other org that does more to preserve the original, amazing spirit of the Internet?" Thanks, @doctorow! http://boingboing.net/2014/12/14/charitable-giving-guide.html

I was just thinking if we wanted to save even more. that would help if e.g. if there's a manual retweet (i.e. not through the API, just prefix with "RT"). then they prepend ~15 chars on the beginning and that's too long.
But then even 130 is too long. Anyway, was just an idea :)
