Comment:

 This is happening because the `2019.us` site has already been created,
 even though the 2018 event hasn't happened yet, which is a rare exception
 to the process.

 Probably the best way to fix this would be to update
 `WordCamp_Canonical_Years_Plugin::wp_head()` to ignore sites that are in
 Coming Soon mode.

 This doesn't seem like a high priority to me, but maybe that's because I'm
 not seeing the tangible issues it's causing? The Twitter and Facebook
 shares seem ok.

 Can you elaborate on the impact of this?
