Coverage was also high in Egypt, India, Brazil, Mexico, and even China, where some Wikimedia projects remain blocked. Pitching 40 “Top Tier” media targets, the Foundation Communications team placed 39 stories in 23 outlets, nearly equalling Google, eBay, and Amazon’s 15th anniversaries coverage combined (49 total stories from 23 outlets).
