Wikidelphia On Twitter/X

twitter.com/wikidelphia1

Wikidelphia's Twitter timeline @wikidelphia1 began in February 2022. I, staff editor PaulSank started it and have been running it. I put out these kinds of tweets:

• A Brand New Wikidelphia Page: I announce a newly made Wikidelphia page.
• New Stub: When I start a page, I announce the new "stub". Usually, the page idea was prompted by a story found in the news, so this type of tweet will usually include a news story. These tweets also mention that the stub will become a full page in a few months.
• News Item Added: In my regular news search for page ideas, sometimes I'll bump into a news story that would be good to add to an existing Wikidelphia page. I announce the addition.
• Random Page of the Week: Wikidelphia's "Next Random Page" feature is fun to use! Every week, I use it to pick a page to highlight. I keep clicking on Next Random Page until I come up with a page that looks good and is up-to-date.
• Random Category of the Week: One of the most important features of Wikidelphia is our category system. In order to give folks an idea how to use it, I highlight a randomly selected category every week.
• Random "Where" of the Week: One of my favorite Wikidelphia features is the "geographical infrastructure", in which I gradually found every neighborhood in Philadelphia, made a Where category out of each one, added at least one page to each neighborhood, and use an "Adjoining Neighborhoods" paragraph on each page, enabling you to easily go "neighborhood hopping". I highlight a randomly selected Philly neighborhood every week.
• Top-Viewed Tweets: Periodically, I'll do a countdown of our top-Viewed (most popular) tweets. Since most of our tweets refer to organizations or businesses, this is an opportunity for some local organizations and businesses to be spotlighted for their popularity.
• Special Mention and Editor's Note: Some tweets don't fit into any of the types above, but I still want to tweet, so I call it a "Special Mention" or an "Editor's Note".
