May be on Sunday (and Monday too) so that we give them ample of time to go out and click photos on Sunday/Monday and upload??

Hiya,
as the contest ends, can we change the CentralNotice banner saying something like this: "Wiki Loves Monuments contest ends tomorrow/the day after. Photograph a monument, help Wikipedia and win."
This is just to alert that the contest is ending soon, and so that most people will hurry up!

Ok, it may not have much effect, but is there any harm in trying?

The central notice banner should be part of a broader campaign to promote Wiki Loves Monuments. Last couple of years we also had articles in magazines, etc. Bit too late for that now I guess...
