Do we usually tweet about edit-a-thon proposals?

If so, I would recommend this copy:

Join @tdannecy for an edit-a-thon about Gainesville and its rich history of civil rights activism. http://gainesville2015.thatcamp.org/2015/04/22/wikipedia-edit-a-thon/

If not, we could wait until he has firmed up a date …
