editHello, and welcome to contributing to Wikipedia. I have just read your sandbox talk page, which I found very interesting. However, there were a at least a couple of mistakes, which you may like to know about. Firstly, in the context, "complementary" is indeed the correct spelling: it would make no sense to read it as "complimentary", which would mean that Twitter would praise and extol something or someone, presumably Barack Obama. Secondly, the article says "400,000 articles were written in blogs. 400,000 videos that supported Obama were posted into YouTube": the word "exactly" appears to be your own gloss, which is not supported in the article. It is highly unlikely that anyone would imagine that those figures were intended to be exact, but even if for some reason you did think that, the article certainly does not "state" that, as you suggested. Also, while using the spelling "organised" in an article on a subject specifically related to the United States is not a very appropriate, I think calling it a "spelling error" is questionable, since it is the spelling which is usual in most of the English speaking world.
