Okay. I can bring this up with appropriate people, but I want input here
first.

 

Wikinews needs to be bringing people in to read our stories, and the way I
see some people (who are on this list) doing so is by posting to twitter and
Facebook.

 

Many sites have a set of social sharing links at the bottom of an article.
Is there anything stopping us from doing the same?

 

First possible objection - requires embedding of a link/webbug that lets
them see who reads an article. Different from "who posts an article" by
clicking on the 'social bookmark' button.

Second - can we per [[WN:FU]] justify hosting their logos locally?

 

Points to note:

Can we do what the BBC do? If you add one of their stories to Facebook the
pop-up window allows to select from all images on the article page.
