There's now a Simplified Chinese translation as well:

Considering the topic of the post (China has by far the highest remaining IE6 usage), I think a Chinese-language tweet is justified, alongside the usual targeted Facebook posts:
*T: 为保障用户免受POODLE攻击，移除对SSL 3.0的支持

(i.e. the translated title of the post + the link + "#IE6")
- FB (targeted to simplified Chinese and PR China):
SSL 3.0发明于1996年。所有现代浏览器都支持比SSL 3.0更新的协议，所以绝大多数用户不会被这一改变所影响。但是Internet Explorer 6（IE6）或更早的浏览器仅支持SSL 3.0，如果你正在使用这些浏览器的话，你会受到以下影响：

Hello all,
Here is the proposed SM for the Removing SSL 3.0 Support blog post.
Thanks
for reviewing!

As an exception for this blog post, we should use the HTTP URL instead of HTTPS for linking to the post:
http://blog.wikimedia.org/2014/10/17/protecting-users-against-poodle-by-remo...
(since we're targeting especially people who use browsers with incomplete HTTPS support, even in case Wordpress.com hasn't disabled SSL 3.0 yet - I didn't check)

If I'm informed correctly, IE versions prior to IE6 didn't support encryption at all, so "& older" isn't entirely correct ;)
- t: WMF has ceased support of SSL 3.0 to protect our users. IE6 users
will
be impacted:

LGTM

This one sounds good, except that it does not mention IE6. Suggest
instead:
Scared of the #POODLE? WMF removes SSL 3.0 support to protect our users. If you still use the IE6 browser, read this:

- f/g: In the interest of protecting our users, The Wikimedia
Foundation has
ceased support for SSL 3.0, an outdated HTTPS implementation that leaves users vulnerable to the Padding Oracle On Downgraded Legacy Encryption
or
POODLE. Users of Internet Explorer 6 or other old browsers will be
impacted.

With some tweaks:
Wikimedia has taken measures to protect its users from the POODLE security vulnerability by ceasing support for SSL 3.0. Users of Internet Explorer 6 and other very old browsers will be affected.
