Good call.

I made the change on the blog as well.

And I agree it’s fine to wait to share until the morning, so we can reach more folks.

Thanks for all your help with this story, Joe!

LGTM. I’d publish in the morning since it’s 2am right now in Nigeria.

One minor suggestion, I’d change "Meet Johnson Oludeinde, who is exposing corruption in Nigeria” to "Meet Johnson Oludeinde, who says he is exposing corruption in Nigeria”, bolding mine. Probably don’t want to suggest bias on our part there.

Hi Michael and social media elves,

We just published a profile of Johnson Oludeinde, who is using Wikipedia to expose corruption in Nigeria, on the Wikimedia blog:

https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/04/08/fighting-corruption-johnson-oludeinde/ https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/04/08/fighting-corruption-johnson-oludeinde/

Thanks to Victor, Yoona and Joe for helping prepare that story. :)

We propose the following social media messaging:

Twitter:

• Fight corruption with Wikipedia: Join Johnson Oludeinde Oluata to prevent injustice through shared knowledge.

• "This world will be better if we all have knowledge." Meet Johnson Oludeinde Oluata

Facebook/Google+:

• Meet Johnson Oludeinde, who is exposing corruption in Nigeria by writing Wikipedia articles on this important issue. He invites you to join him to prevent injustice through shared knowledge.

Feel free to tweak as you see fit.

Michael, the social media can wait until the morning, if you like. I published it early, because several of us will be tied up in tomorrow’s daylong product offsite.

At your suggestion, I changed the copy a bit, so it is different from the photo caption — which is what people will see below the image on the Facebook card. Thanks for pointing out this issue! :)

Thanks for sharing!

Fabrice
