Please really give a week from the event time. Today you are lucky, because there will be one deploy window before your event but it can't last forever. Thank you in advance.

And please create consistent requests. Do you want the lift for 5 March (as the text says) or for 8 March? It really didn't make us to look at WMUK in a good way ;). I'm going to create a rule for 5 March as event page says but please check me.

I thought so. Will be deployed today between 19:00 and 20:00 UTC. Just for clarify, I guess the rule would be for the English Wikipedia?
