Hi all,
Here is the proposed SM for today's blog post regarding the recent Italian
court ruling. Thanks for reviewing:

Court Victory in Italy
t: Wikimedia wins significant defamation lawsuit in Italy against
politician:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/07/22/victory-in-italy-based-on-freedom-of-…
Tis fine but I like the below options better.
Me too, and I don't think we should use "defamation" here, first
because the tweet would leave it unclear who should have defamed whom,
and second because the post does not focus on whether the alleged
defamation actually took place. Rather, it focuses on free speech, so
we could modify this tweet as follows:
"Wikimedia wins significant free speech lawsuit in Italy against politician:"
But I'm also fine with using one or two of the tweets below.
t: Legal win in favor of @Wikimedia paves way for more robust free speech
protections under Italian law:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/07/22/victory-in-italy-based-on-freedom-of-…
This would be my preferred tweet from @Wikimedia, LGTM
t: WMF will defend against those who challenge the community's right to
speak, create and share freely:
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/07/22/victory-in-italy-based-on-freedom-of-…
This is a bit stronger but I like it because of that, it would be my
preferred tweet from @Wikipedia. Should we add The at the start?
It's not
necessary, but why not.
f/g: After an arduous four years, the Wikimedia Foundation has obtained a
resounding victory in an Italian defamation suit filed by Italian
politician, Antonio Angelucci and his son, Giampaulo. The ruling paves the
way for more robust free speech protections on the Internet under Italian
law.

f/g: On July 9, the Roman Civil Tribunal handed down its ruling in favor
of the Wikimedia Foundation, dismissing a defamation lawsuit and declaring
that the Foundation is not legally responsible for content that users freely
upload onto the Wikimedia projects.

f/g: "When the need arises, the Wikimedia Foundation will not hesitate to
defend the world's largest repository of human knowledge against those who
challenge the Wikimedia community's right to speak, create, and share
freely."
