The First ever Creative Commons event in Telugu: Ten Telugu Books Re-released Under CC

t: Wikimedians came together for a Telugu Creative Commons event - 10 books released under CC license:https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/07/23/first-ever-creative-commons-event-in-t...

I don't think we can assume everyone knows that Telugu is an Indian language. I would prefer the following one, but if we want to edit this tweet further, we should also mention that the release happens on @wikisource.

I like the angle, but I think we need to indicate that Telugu is a language. Tweaking a bit further to add a sense of timeliness, I would suggest:

Last month, 100 Wikimedians came together for the first ever Creative Commons event in the Telugu language: https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/07/23/first-ever-creative-commons-event-in-t...

f/g: “Wikimedians in collaboration with CIS-A2K came together to celebrate this first ever Creative Commons event in Telugu.” 10 Telugu books were re-released under the Creative Commons license (CC-BY-SA 3.0) – inspiring other participants to come forward and donate their books under the license as well. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/07/23/first-ever-creative-commons-event-in-t...

Suggest tweaking as follows:

Recently about 100 Wikimedians came together in Hyderabad to celebrate this first ever Creative Commons event in Telugu, held in collaboration with CIS-A2K. 10 Telugu books were re-released under the Creative Commons license (CC-BY-SA 3.0) for upload on Wikisource – inspiring other participants to come forward and donate their books under the license as well. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/07/23/first-ever-creative-commons-event-in-t...

(In this case, the automatic excerpt from the beginning of the post should serve to explain the language bit.)
