App

Right, Wikimedia is not a social network... but the content is created by humans and these humans have relation between they. For example, "Wiki Love" tries to connect a user with other user to improve the human relationship and make a better experience to newbies or veterans users, because in discussion pages we have only "errors" notifications or bot messages, but we forget (in some place or time) that Wikimedia projects are constructed by humans. In some projects, the warning messages to users are distributed by bots in automatic mode (o scrpts), but if we can write a short sentence about the problem, we're encouraging a change in the user. Please, don't say "Wikimedia is not a social network", maybe this is not the goal, but we are making human relationships.

About the proposal, sounds interesting but, are we in conditions to publish our articles? and our articles, are they interesting to readers?. Another thing, in es.wikinews we have an user writing in twitter (no bot), we generate a RSS feed in Toolserver and facebook page that is connected with the twitter account, but our reader quota are not growing... maybe spread the words over social networks aren't to efficient :(.

Regards (and sorry for the extension or language, cooperate in other language is complicated)
