It seems we are developing more of an interest in these recently... I don't think every new study is suitable to be promoted or endorsed via @wikipedia and other main accounts, but I'd selfishly suggest to retweet https://twitter.com/WikiResearch on suitable occasions. In particular, if there are no objections, I will start retweeting the new issues of the monthly newsletter more regularly from @wikimedia (and from @wikipedia too when fitting), starting with the new one: https://twitter.com/WikiResearch/status/594719120471433216 (we did this a couple of times before, as it's done for most other blog posts)
No we would need to curate to determine which studies are suitable for social promotion.

Glad we agree on the need to be discerning regarding tweets about single studies...
Having heard no objection against this last newsletter tweet, I have now retweeted it from @wikimedia, following our general four-eyes principle (that tweet had been crafted by Dario). These may on occasion also be suitable for @wikipedia, but that would need to be looked at on a case-by-case basis.

I certainly think you should be selective though you've been doing this long enough I don't think we need to go through a very lengthy process for it. I would be happy with either a notification to the list or a short window to wait for objections (I'm thinking an hour or two at most). In the end more content like this could be very useful on the handles and removing some barriers to doing so for appropriate content and people who we know to be selective in when/how they do it is a very low hanging fruit way to do it :).
