Adding Wilson, who will be able to help us with crafting one/correcting!
There's now a Simplified Chinese translation as well:
http://blog.wikimedia.org/zh/2014/10/18/%E4%B8%BA%E4%BF%9D%E9%9A%9C%E7%94%A8%E6%88%B7%E5%85%8D%E5%8F%97poodle%E6%94%BB%E5%87%BB%EF%BC%8C%E7%A7%BB%E9%99%A4%E5%AF%B9ssl-3-0%E7%9A%84%E6%94%AF%E6%8C%81/
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

#IE6
(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：

(i.e. the third paragraph of the translated post)
