Notes

Article: Reblogging

- The article references "twitter" and mentions a story behind the origins of the popularity of "retweets" that could be simplified by linking it to the "retweet" article already on Wikipedia to provide clarity.

Portion of the article that requires revision

"In 2009, the "retweet" phenomenon would experience a major uptick in adoption by Twitter users in order to forward SMS posts by Iranian observers and participants in the events following the Iranian presidential election."

What's missing...

Is this reference required?

Simplify text by providing a link to the "retweet" article already on Wikipedia as well as adding a source that provides more information related to twitter rather than the event as an example.
