It is actually common practice in the industry to set reminder per coast here in the USA (largest media markets) due to the 3 hour time zone difference. For the 60 Minutes broadcast back in April, we did do that, even though I only got a chance to Livetweet for the west coast airing.

I agree with James that industry best practices targeted at one market in one country might not work as well globally ;)
(Joe, if you want to get weirded out completely, do a thorough read through https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_time_zones_on_North_American_broadc... .)

Hi eveyrone again, got out the first round of tweets @wikimedia and @wikipedia, and here are the proposed social media messages for Facebook/Google+. Thank you for reviewing. Want share a friendly reminder that these posts for Facebook are able to be geotargetted to strictly the USA.
-
New documentary “On Two Fronts: Latinos & Vietnam” premiering tonight at 10pm on PBS features Wikipedian, Antonio Santiago sharing his experience during the Vietnam War. Catch the full trailer here: https://vimeo.com/122576232
-
Wikipedia editor Antonio Santiago, aka “Tony the Marine” stars in a new PBS documentary, “On Two Fronts: Latinos & Vietnam”, which details the experiences of Latino Americans serving in the Vietnam War. The official Wikimedia blog caught up with Santiago back in 2013.
https://blog.wikimedia.org/2013/10/30/profile-tony-the-marine/
Love to use one or two of these quotes to maybe push more than once as well:
-
“Most people do not know the contribution that Latinos have made. Wikipedia has provided me with the tools to help,” -
“When I was growing up in some of the rougher parts of New York City, the history books usually failed to mention Hispanic people. Because of that, children like me lacked role models and heroes, or a sense of our own history. Wikipedia has provided me with a tool to help. “ -
“To be able to share my knowledge with thousands of people for free is beyond my comprehension. Only Wikipedia can make that possible.” -
“We’re living in an era, especially in the United States, where the anti-Latino sentiment is very high.”
-
Be sure to tune in tonight to PBS at 10PM for the premiere of the new documentary “On Two Fronts: Latino & Vietnam” featuring Wikipedian Antonio Santiago sharing his experiences of the Vietnam War. #LatinosVietnam <No Link>

You should do what you think is necessary :) however it's important to try and keep things in balance even as we (hopefully in my mind :) ) continue increase our SM coverage, refine our voice and tell everyone our story.
Industry practice does not generally expect to have less then 20% of your followers be from the US (in fact it usually assumes a majority and when I talk to SM folks at even the large "international" websites that's usually true). Our market is very different, we will need to take cues off of normal practice but adjust it to our own voice, experience and realities. It's why the job of the DCM has so much complexity :). Much of those parameters are, obviously, still evolving but I don't personally think that this fits right now. Sometimes it will make sense, but I don't think it does here.

Yeah, LGTM in general but I'd lean against the multiple posts. Either saying something like 10pm Eastern & Pacific or just leaving that out with the assumption that those who would have watched will understand that (not a perfect assumption but a not a horrible one). Not only is a large portion of our audience not in the US but we're ignoring the other 2 time zones ;) (which, yes, know that they tend to have to share one or the other times) and so I'm shy from jumping up an down about it..
tldr: I'd just drop the X coast posts.

errr, clarifying: I have no actual issue with multiple posts :) Just shy away from the "hey X cost!" posts. Just not sure they add enough to be useful atm especially since 75%+ of our audience is non-US and we're already tweeting about a US centric show that may end up with some geo targeting issues for the link (which is fine :D just don't need to rub it in for them too much).

LGTM but it seems very odd to me to have two posts one for each coast?

Hello everyone,
Tonight on PBS, new Vietnam documentary featuring Wikipedian Antonio Santiago is to premiere here tonight in the USA at 10PM (EST/PST).
Our blog did a feature on him a while back: https://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Thank_You/Tony_Santiago
Here's proposed Tweets. Will include proposed Facebook and G+ shortly, but wanted to make sure we got these seen.
I intend to promote their landing page, which features a trailer with a segment featuring Tony, their designated handles and hashtags – and of course – our own blog post on him. Thank you for reviewing.

In support of Michael here... with Facebook's geotargeting mechanism, we can target specific audiences and use some of these industry best practices where beneficial. I'd agree that time zones would be a bad idea for Twitter, but Facebook is different.

Totally agree :) when we're able to target the calculus changes completely (I was, rightly or wrongly i might add ;), assuming Twitter mostly from the construction).

I agree with that too ;) I thought that James had instead been referring to the tweets that had been proposed in the initial email. (As an aside, Twitter actually offers geotargeting...... for sponsored tweets: https://business.twitter.com/help/geo-gender-and-language-targeting . Yes, gender-targeting too.)

Yeah,
One of the DCM candidates had the idea of attempting to convince Twitter to let us very cheaply ($1) or freely use the "sponsored tweet" targeting on Twitter if we did it only for our followers. I have absolutely no idea if that's a possibility in the Twitter system (when I chatted about it with a colleague there they were unsure but didn't know enough about the backend of the system. They mostly weren't sure how easy it would be to build in as a follower only option.) but it's certainly an interesting idea (and even if it does nothing other then encourage them to have regular targeting as an option like facebook does for some accounts it's unlikely to hurt us to ask :) ).
