Given the time zone issues (the video is released in the US on Dec. 17 but in other countries on it will be the 18th) we should probably not mention Dec. 17 or any specific time. I like the suggestion of saying how many hours are left.Also think the "Tomorrow is almost here" could be confusing if people don't know what #Edit2014 is.Love the ones that mention # of edits. Yay for stats!On Tue, Dec 16, 2014 at 4:48 PM, Joe Sutherland <jsutherland@wikimedia.org> wrote:Alrighty, that's fine. It sucks that it sort of straddles timezones which makes it hard to give a date out.I'm not really sure what the best thing to do would be here. Maybe just say "Just X hours left until #edit2014!" or similar?JoeOn 17 December 2014 at 00:41, Michael Guss <mguss@wikimedia.org> wrote:Hi Joe, I agree with your suggestions. UTC would be the best way to go. PCT is poor jargon.Dec. 17 9:00PM PST (5:00 UTC Dec. 18). would be the time release. However, the timing may change so we'll wait and see.Thanks Naureen. Once these are posted, I will email the thread with their URLs.On Tue, Dec 16, 2014 at 4:35 PM, Naureen <msnora@gmail.com> wrote:Yeah, no problem. Wasn't sure if you already sent it out.
