Hi Hilary,
Any chance of moving the hours around from time to time? UTC 17:00 is 5 am in
NZ, and even earlier for Australians. We have some keen OpenRefine and Wikidata
people here who would love to join in I’m sure. Myself, I’ll try to be up by
5:00 to participate in this, as it sounds like a great project.
Cheers,
