Good morning,

Just to clarify the 16th celebration, what I meant by 'our day' is it is
our day. Today is our day as Wikipedians.

However today is more about social media outreach. The coming
Saturday/Sunday is the party & editathon bit which Georgina is handling.


*Social media plans*

Like I mentioned earlier basically let's go online and make 'noise' with
the hashtag *#HappyBirthdayWikipedia*. The are other hashtags going around
though.

Here are some of the thoughts you can add to your posts and tweets:

– Suggest a Wikipedia page that doesn't exist yet with the hashtag
#HappyBirthdayWikipedia to request that it gets created.

– Does any piece of information need a fix? Use the hashtag to request a
fix so a Wikipedian can take it from there.

– Say thank you to Wikipedia if you want to and add the hashtag to your
message.

– Have a meme? Share and add the hashtag.

– What was your first Wikipedia edited or created?

In fact anything you'd like to say, just do with the hashtag.

This week, Tech & Social Media trends on Citi FM breakfast show may pick it
and talk about it.

*Editathon*

On Saturday there'll be an editathon. If Georgina is able to, she'll host
the party afterwards.


I hope we are reflecting on how Wikipedia is helping the world of knowledge
and also giving some of us worthy causes to dedicate our time to, plus a
wonderful community to be a part of.

Happy 16th and best wishes!


Regards,
