It was mostly a reference to the number of Fans ("likes") of http://www.facebook.com/wikipedia, currently 963,477. At the moment, the page's "Weekly Total Reach" is at 291,205 (defined by FB as "The number of unique people who have seen any content associated with your Page from 2/3/12 to 2/9/12. This includes Ads and Sponsored Stories that point to your Page"), down from 1,534,448 during the week of the SOPA blackout.

I might still tweak the approach (for example, also do country-targeted updates, to reach Facebook users who have set their language to English instead of their native language), and will evaluate the impact on readership later. -- Tilman Bayer Movement Communications Wikimedia Foundation IRC (Freenode): HaeB _______________________________________________ Translators-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/translators-l
