Would tweak slightly because he's not the only interviewee, otherwise great
"It takes a lot of work to truly research a film" says Erik, a member
of WikiProject Film. Check out this interview:

Like the pun, but we should give the Signpost credit where it's due. Suggest:

Lights, Camera, Action - Edit! Check the @wikisignpost interview with
WikiProject Film:

Would work if tweeted from @wikipedia, otherwise I fear the relation
to Wikipedia might be a bit cryptic.

Looks OK, but is it "anyway" or "anyways"?

Would remove the colon at the end, otherwise OK.

I like the first two of these suggested tweets (research/lights) best,
but they all seem postable, with the suggested tweets.

COI editing is not the central theme of the interview, but the message
could still work (try to link the Signpost's page on FB).

I guess this should read "100+ year history". Otherwise OK.
