Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Sadiq Khan shows support for WMUK

2018-06-13 Thread Richard Nevell
Well done Wikimedia UK. Someone (not me!) mentioned it at the office a few
weeks ago, followed by several nods and comments along the lines of "that's
a good thing to do". Events like this do a lot of positive work beyond the
number of articles improved on the day.

Any Wikimedians who are on Twitter, could you please go and like the
Mayor's Twitter post about the editathon so we can improve the ratio of

He's both a prominent person of colour and in favour of staying in the EU.

The abuse he gets online is simultaneously shocking and wholly
unsurprising. 

Sadiq Khan has tweeted in our support three times in the last 24 hours. It’s a 
shock to read the tweets he’s had in reply, though. It seems he has a huge 
number of very unpleasant followers who are there solely to attack him 
personally.
