Hello Chico, The mail goal of that discussion is to see similar cases around the globe and evaluate the potential impact on the Wikimedia projects. That info is very important for future proposals and initiatives like that one proposed on pt.wiki. After so many discussion and comments

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

Rodrigo, I really don't mean to be negative, but the appropriate forum to discuss the merits of the decision is in the topic open in wikipt about it. About the form, using sitenotice for external social media reach, I can see a reasoning to debate this here, but discussing if it is/will be

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

Hello Tomasz and everyone else according to https://stats.wikimedia.org/EN/TablesWikipediaBG.htm the number of active editors has raised by 19% in January, but it might as well be because there were Christmas holidays in December. I do not believe we have enough data to make a good quantitative

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

During the WLE an WLM 2015 we created and published some paid campaigns inside Facebook to reach more people and bring people from Facebook to our contest's pages inside Wikipedia. IMHO that it's a good approach, but add a direct link inside wikipedia to commercial sites/social networks are

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

Certainly agree with you Craig. I just generally wasn't aware of those examples which do set a precedent. I will add documenting all of the different community community uses of SiteNotice to my list of things to do. :) Seddon On Fri, Feb 19, 2016 at 12:31 PM, Craig Franklin

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

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. Seddon On

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

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

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

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.

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

Indonesian Wikipedia has used site notice to link to their Facebook group, Twitter, and Instagram for years. Their facebook page has 97,236 likes. https://www.facebook.com/id.wiki posts often get 100 likes compare with Wikimedia Commons page, with 2,793 likes, and posts usually attract < 10

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

The Macedonian community has also had success attracting attention to their social media channels via Facebook etc. links on sitenotice for a while. I believe they reached a staggering number of likes (~35000 was it?), from next to nothing. Those social media channels seem to have been used to

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

Nikola - but does it bring any added value to Wikipedia? Does number of active editors in Bulgarian Wikipedia increased because of it? Can you see it in Wikipedia statics? IMHO it is the only thing which might legitimate such an action. Ten e-mail został wysłany z komputera wolnego od

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

Hello Rodrigo, on Bulgarian Wikipedia we put a text asking readers to like our Facebook page, our Twitter and Google+ accounts, as well to visit our blog [1]. The Facebook likes went up from 1923 to 5381 in a month, 126 people followed us on Twitter (virtually nobody did it before that), 123

Re: [Wikimedia-l] Facebook marketing inside pt.wikipedia

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
