That is indeed such a cool project, when I first heard about it I thought it 
would be one of those 1 time "oh cool" things I learn... It seems to keep 
coming up though...

Some social would be nice but I assume you were thinking of linking to the WP 
article? (The quote you gave was with the reuters link but now that I see it's 
a quote from the article maybe you just copied with the reference...)

Perhaps:

DYK: In 2015 the Syrian Civil War caused the first withdrawal from the Svalbard 
Seed Vault to restock @ICARDA_CGIAR <link>
 
i had to use "caused" to get the twitter length right and still keep DYK which 
I really like... If you don't use that though could switch back to promoted.

@SvalbardVault exists on Twitter but can't tell if official so not sure if we 
should link (also never actually tweeted)
