In the spirit of achieving good grammar on the HPR website, New Years Eve should be New Year's Eve.

The logic is that:

  • New Year is the first of January
  • The eve (evening or day before) of this day is December 31st
  • The eve is "possessed" by the day and the phrase "New Year's" should denote this by using the possessive form (the eve belonging to New Year)
  • Without the apostrophe it's a plural

In the spirit of achieving good grammar on the HPR website, `New Years Eve` should be `New Year's Eve`. The logic is that: - New Year is the first of January - The _eve_ (evening or day before) of this day is December 31st - The _eve_ is "possessed" by the day and the phrase "New Year's" should denote this by using the possessive form (the _eve_ belonging to New Year) - Without the apostrophe it's a plural Supporting article: [Is It New Year, New Year’s, or New Years?

Sorry about the error in the ticket.
The request is to create a new page for the new year show and link it.
So the link should be https://hackerpublicradio.org/eps/hpr3246/index.html and not new-year.html

I don't have a new-year.html page. This may have been something else that didn't get copied over.

I have changed to the links to point to the promo recording. It is currently up for review on my website.

The Mumble server details are not listed on this page.
Suggest using the 'HPR Mumble server' wording as the server details link.

I think we need to have the content-new_year_show_announcement.tpl.html appear from only 29th Dec until the 2nd of Jan.

before that we should have another announcement page with the promo available and that should probably appear from 1nov until 28th Dec.
