Chinese Wikipedia Online Magazine: A Community Gateway

t: Online magazine The Wikipedian is the latest tool in spreading the Wikimedia movement to Chinese readers:https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/08/12/chinese-wikipedia-online-magazine-a-co...

With some tweaks:

Online magazine "The Wikipedian" is the latest tool for spreading the Wikimedia movement to Chinese readers

t: The Wikipedian aims to be the first successful Chinese online magazine with news from the Wikimedia movement:https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/08/12/chinese-wikipedia-online-magazine-a-co...

Add quotation marks:

t: The Wikipedian aims to bridge the gap between Chinese Wikipedians and the broader international community:https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/08/12/chinese-wikipedia-online-magazine-a-co...

Might be a bit confusing as it doesn't quite make clear that it's an online magazine...

f/g: “A Chinese proverb says: do not look at the sky from the bottom of a well, going outside is the only way to understand what the world you live in looks like. The Wikipedian would like to be one of the ways for Chinese Wikipedians to see and touch the broader international community.”https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/08/12/chinese-wikipedia-online-magazine-a-co...

Add quoation marks for readability:

f/g: “When Addis and Wilson first thought about creating an online magazine, they faced some challenges. Since 2005, many Chinese Wikipedians tried different ways to publish online magazines, but no one succeeded.” The Wikipedian aims to learn from past mistakes and be a reliable sources for Chinese Wikipedians to connect with the broader Wikimedia movement around the world. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/08/12/chinese-wikipedia-online-magazine-a-co...

Not so sure about this one - I think the previous one works better.
