I love the extra detail on this Joe!

For the twitter one I'd try to find some way to mention the editing. Perhaps:

Wikipedia editors respond as FIFA President Sepp #Blatter is "provisionally suspended" https://blog.wikimedia.org/2015/10/07/blatter-fifa-suspension-hurricane/

?

Re timing, personally I was thinking share now to capitalize on the lull where they don't have much to feed them and then re share or "update" the article with notes about the changes (with a reshare then) but i bow to you and Jeff etc if waiting is better.

Note on this - it looks likely that Sepp Blatter will be suspended proper by the end of the week. We might want to wait for that to happen and pounce on that when it's fresh.
