May I propose improving the names of individual time zones, to a more logical and user-friendly way.  I'm suggesting they all begin with the UTC and hour difference, then a dash, then either any local name or primary city.  A few examples:
*<tt>UTC+2 - [[:Category:Eastern European Time|Eastern European Time (EET)]]
*<tt>UTC+2 - [[:Category:Eastern European Time|Eastern European Time (EET)]]
*UTC+1 - [[:Category:Central European Time|Central European Time (CET)]]

*UTC-8 - [[:Category:Pacific Time Zone|Pacific Time Zone]]
*UTC-8 - [[:Category:Pacific Time Zone|Pacific Time Zone]]
*UTC-9 - Alaska Time</tt>
*UTC-9 - Alaska Time</tt>
