Chiming in here to suggest different ones for both of these. For the tweet, Tighe doesn't speculate on why, so that seems off, and for the FB one, it's not 6% higher than the English Wikipedia programs, it's 6%, which is higher than the U.S./Canada program retention rate (which is around 3%).
(I'd also point out we do not have retention rate stats for all the programs on the English Wikipedia that are not the US/Canada program run by the Wiki Education Foundation, so the language on the blog post should probably be changed to clarify that 6% is higher than the U.S./Canada program, not higher than "education programs on English Wikipedia", as the blog post says.)
How about instead:
- T: Arab world students in the Wikipedia Education Program make up a
significant portion of active editors on the Arabic Wikipedia.
- F: The Wikipedia Education Program Arab World is adding editors to the
Arabic Wikipedia, with 6% of students continuing to add content long after the end of their courses.

t: Wikipedia Education Program students keep editing in Arabic long
after their assignments are finished, but why? https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/05/06/students-keep-editing-in-arabic-long-a...
f/g: The Arab World Wikipedia Education Program has experienced an
unexpectedly high retention rate among student editors. Of the 464 valid usernames 27 were still editing months later, according to statistics from February of 2014. That’s a 6% higher retention rate than education programs on English Wikipedia. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/05/06/students-keep-editing-in-arabic-long-a...
