This looks like an awesome activity, especially doing it globally at some level, it would be awesome to get a quick blog post up but I imagine it's a bit late but perhaps at least some SM posts?

Hi, all!
The winner of the Nobel Peace Prize will be announced this Friday, and in cooperation with Wikimedia Norge, the Nobel Peace Center https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobel_Peace_Center has invited Wikipedians from the Norwegian Wikipedia community to an editathon to improve the article about the winner(s?) as soon as possible. We'll be sitting practically in the next room from where the announcement is made, updating relevant articles as fast as we can.
For this to be a global event, I'd like to invite anyone who's interested to join us in the IRC channel #wikipedia-nobel irc://freenode/#wikipedia-nobel, where we'll be talking and coordinating. We'll also try to livetweet the event using the hashtag #wikinobel https://twitter.com/hashtag/wikinobel, probably mainly from the account @WikimediaNorge https://twitter.com/WikimediaNorge.
The press conference will be start around 10:30 Norwegian time, which is *08:30 UTC*, like I said on *Friday, 10th of October*. Please join us, and help spread this invitation to your community.

Aye, that would be great. I'm CC-ing WMNO's employee Astrid Carlsen, who basically set this all up, and has all the (juicy?) details.

We'd absolutely love to see a blog post -- especially one that we get ready ASAP and could work with you to pitch to the media. Happy to offer any support we can.

Sure, I'll get in touch with Astrid in the morning (in ~8-9 hours), I'm sure we can work something out. Since I have no formal position in WMNO (just a regular member) I'm not confident with cooking something up without consulting the employees and/or board members (who are probably asleep right now).
