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 people followed us on
Google+ and the reader numbers on our blog went significantly up (I don't
have the data right now). Nobody in the community objected to this and we
would probably do it again some day. We decided to remove it after a month,
because we saw that the number of new likes declined over time.

The general idea is to bring more people from Facebook to access

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 regarding Facebook and #freebasics, that 
discussion is relevant and very important for the Wikimedia Movement, IMHO!

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 analysis.

Something else we organised was a weekly "wikigame" – we asked a question
on social media and Wikipedia every day and the person who answered the
most questions correctly got a book for up to 15 Euro (the price of a
pretty good paperback edition of books, which can be used as sources). That
lead to a few new editors and a few new articles. I believe social media
have a potential and we will see that during CEE Spring. The themes were
Olympic games, football, art, history of Bulgaria and geography.

Best regards,
Nikola

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

2016-02-19 Thread Rodrigo Padula
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 not a good idea, mainly thinking about 
privacy, net neutrality and compatibility with our movement mission. In that 
way we are redirecting people from Wikipedia to external sites.

The other problem is, don't matter if we have 5.000 or 1.000.000 of likes in a 
Facebook page, to reach that public we always have to pay Facebook ads to 
increase reach.

The Facebook is always cutting post's reach to stimulate publishers to pay more 
money to reach more people.

Basically we reach more people and get more views and clicks adding USD$10,00 
to a Facebook post than having a page with 100.000 likes.

Including, offer an option to promote paid ads only to people that liked your 
page and their friends.

So, it's getting hard to grow on Facebook in a organic way, don't matter how 
many likes or friends do you have.

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
considerable effect in drawing attention and attracting contributors to
events like WLM.

This was discussed at the Wikimedia Central and Eastern European Meeting
2014. Notes from that session are still on Etherpad[1].

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.

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 likes.

2016-02-19 Thread Asaf Bartov
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
considerable effect in drawing attention and attracting contributors to
events like WLM.

This was discussed at the Wikimedia Central and Eastern European Meeting
2014.  Notes from that session are still on Etherpad[1].

CCing Bojan for potential additional details.

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.

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 people followed us on
Google+ and the reader numbers on our blog went significantly up (I don't
have the data right now). Nobody in the community objected to this and we
would probably do it again some day. We decided to remove it after a month,
because we saw that the number of new likes declined over time.

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.
