This time zone is used when calculating displayed page update timestamps, and may become temporarily incorrect from time to time if you observe daylight saving time (DST). Don't forget to update it to match ''your'' local time, because this wiki does not know where you are, or precisely if / when you observe DST. (Also, the server's clock may be slightly offset from reality, much as [[:Category:Wikipedia|Wikipedia]] articles may be!) A scattering of typical (and possibly incorrect!) time diff values are below. If yours isn't listed, try [https://www.TimeAndDate.com/time/zones/ this link], or add and subtract a few hours as needed. | ||
