This is a demo article that includes all of the social media embeds supported by GV, and in the various ways we support using them. Specifically, it tries to demonstrate how they look with a translation quote immediately following them, since that is a common use case.
To see this post with the “Extra-wide” layout add /?gv_extra_wide=1 to the end of the URL.
WordPress Embed Tests
Embeds below work on both normal and AMP sites.
Note that something weird about the rendering of amp-wordpress-embed in AMP means we can't add a bottom margin or it collapses in a weird way. Just let it go, rarely used anyway.

This is a translation of the WordPress embed above.
The blockquote should be pushed up against the embed to indicate it's a translation, but isn't perfect on AMP because we can't control the margin as described above.
