STS-135 Tweetup

I tried adding some twitter links of folks who presented to us at the JSC STS-135 Tweetup, but they were rejected by XlinkBot. Any suggestions? - jotulloch — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jotulloch (talk • contribs) 00:41, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Could definitely use help from anyone else who is familiar with NASA Tweetups. User:Ageekgal and I have worked a lot on this but welcome input from anyone else!

criteria for inclusion

I just removed the "space view park tweetup" entry. While I think it's fine to have space related tweetup events listed here that were not directly organized by NASA, there should at least be some notable speaker involved in order to be included here. Otherwise this list is going to get out of control really fast.--RadioFan (talk) 11:50, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

potential impressions

Could anybody provide some more info on how the 'potential impressions' (as mentioned in the last sentence of first para) have been calculated? Or could anybody provide where at what time of the UStream Recording Gavin James mentions this? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrctrv (talk • contribs) 11:16, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

Proposed move

Capitalwiki proposed at WP:AfC/R that this page should be moved to NASA Social because that's the newer name. If there are no objections, I'll move it in a week or so. Huon (talk) 11:47, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Fine with me. Although many attendees (myself included) believe that "NASA Tweetup" was a more appropriate name for the events (since Twitter is the predominantly used social media application at the events), NASA has officially changed the name to "NASA Social", so that's what the article should be called. A redirect should definitely be created so that anyone searching for "NASA Tweetup" still finds the article, though. Andrew Maiman (talk) 21:19, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Done. The redirect from NASA Tweetup was automatically created; I just didn't want to create one in the opposite direction which might have interfered with the move. Huon (talk) 21:40, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Moving the non-NASA events here to Talk page to preserve the information but remove the extraneous information from the page

It once made sense to group them with the NASA Tweetups/Socials, years ago, but now that we are nearing the 100 NASA events mark, and all the other major space agencies are holding their own tweetups/socials, perhaps its time those agency's pages address their social media/PR activities and incorporate their events, etc. We have to be mindful of what Wikipedia is Not and keep this page focused on NASA Social.

Note about my mass edits underway

I'm in the process of adding secondary sources to the list of NASA Socials, which at present rely heavily on NASA's own published press releases for citations. Knowing full well that there are AMPLE secondary and tertiary sources to cite for each of the events, I am in the slow and methodical process of adding them. When I have added at least one non-NASA source to each listed social, then and only then will I go back and remove the NASA.gov citations if other editors deem its necessary due to the length of the references list on the page (and the fact that it's going to continue growing. A single link to NASA's Social page would be sufficient for people to access all of that information, after secondary sources have been added. Ageekgal (talk) 04:14, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
