According to the Times, the reverted edits referred to were made by 212.161.34.130. Looking through the history of the article, the relevant diffs seem to be:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alisher_Usmanov&diff=379790641... and
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alisher_Usmanov&diff=392056591...
I'd encourage you to post a message on the article talk page pointing towards the diff that you link to, so that the editors that are currently looking at that article are aware of it.
Thanks, Mike
Thanks Mike. Will do.

If this diff was the change:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Alisher_Usmanov&diff=482553850...
When was this undone? The deleted stuff about Kommersant (cited to the BBC, http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-16183112 ) is not in the article even now.

Fair point. The reason I wrote it that way is because they basically took The Times story and repackaged it. But yes, a distinction worth making.
Thanks,

Wikimedia UK has just published a blog post giving its response to
today's news stories in The Times and The Daily Telegraph about paid editing of Wikipedia.
You can see the blog post at http://bit.ly/ZfSaln but the full
content is below.
I wouldn't say the Telegraph "republished" the Times story - that implies a reprint or licensed copy - though it's clear they just worked straight from it. Possibly "also ran the story".
