Perhaps: - 11 million Volkswagen diesel cars are carrying software designed to fake emissions tests #NewsOnWikipedia <https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NewsOnWikipedia> - 11 million Volkswagen diesel cars are carrying software designed to manipulate emissions tests #NewsOnWikipedia <https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NewsOnWikipedia> Not quite sure the right word to use there where fake/manipulate is but I think both of those work Could also adjust with a "we learn" prefix which may fit a bit better into "this week" (obviously those cars had the software before etc) like: - We learn 11 million Volkswagen diesel cars have software designed to manipulate emissions tests #NewsOnWikipedia <https://twitter.com/search?q=%23NewsOnWikipedia> same question about fake/manipulate obviously here. • Pope Francis (@Pontifex) made a tour of the US last week. #NewsOnWikipedia > • At least 1,100 were killed in a stampede at the Hajj last week. > #NewsOnWikipedia > • Did you catch the #supermoon ? #NewsOnWikipedia > LGTM, like the supermoon question.
