I stand corrected on all fronts and now know a few examples :D Personally I'd say base it off of the azerbaijani sitenotice, and if you have multiple social media presences include them like the indonesian sitenotice's to remain platform agnostic but avoid the larger kick in the page.

I also noticed the practice in idwiki to promote Facebook page of the Wikipedia in question through site notice. During this year’s discussion of Chinese Wikipedia’s annual strategy, One of our proposed aims is to promote outreach through the Net. I once had a plan to promote our Facebook pages (now diversified roughly by regions, no unified Facebook pages for us), twitter, weibo and IRC channels (there’s a renaissance of IRC in zhwp during the past year) through a site notice. Though our twitter is just a feed of our items on OTD, FA, GA and DYK columns, and Weibo account, which once accepted funds from IEG, is dormant since the last Wikipedia blockage by Peking (thus weakens the effect to absorb more editors). The plan is temporarily on hold. I am thinking that there’re still many of the members of Chinese community do not have an awareness on Net neutrality, so even I do not make any consultation on this plan, I think this plan will be passed with no objections (to make it more easy, generally requests to put up particular site notices are usually not noticed by ordinary users).

While I appreciate these concerns, I think that the most suitable people
to
determine whether this is appropriate for the Portuguese Wikipedia are
the
users of the Portuguese Wikipedia. Perhaps with a veto by the WMF Legal Team if there's some terms of service related reason this can't happen.
Cheers, Craig

Hey Rodrigo,
I don't know of any example where Site Notice has been used in the past
to
point people to facebook.
Although the intentions behind what is being proposed are good ones, I think there are probably issues that surround neutrality and with the
very
different privacy policy of facebook.
Based on those things alone it is not something I would recommend. I
would
be happy to follow up with you further off list if you would like to discuss this further.

Hello fellows!
Since the end of the last year some contributors from pt.wikipedia are discussing regarding the idea of including the promotion of our
Page on site Notice [1]
That proposal was started by Teles, a Brazilian steward. He received a
lot
of local support.
The general idea is to bring more people from Facebook to access
Wikipedia
through our Facebook page, but what we are doing is redirecting users
from
pt.wikipedia to Facebook and including a free Facebook ads on
pt.wikipedia.
I would like to know if it is ok for the Wikimedia Movement and if this kind of Facebook promotional campaign was proposed and published in
other
wikipedias/wikimedia projects.
