Time format
Wouldn't the twenty-four hour clock format be less confusing, especially with all the 12s in the table? --Paul_012 (talk) 16:37, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
 * I think the 12-hour format is more intuitive, since that's how most people read a clock. However, if others want the 24-hour format, it's a simple change. Shubinator (talk) 02:00, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * For me, the confusion it causes to non-Americans (is 12am noon or midnight?) is more trouble than the convenience it gives. --Paul_012 (talk) 04:44, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
 * Bring it up at WT:DYK to see where consensus is. The template was originally proposed with the 12-hour format (by a non-American). Shubinator (talk) 05:50, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Suggestion
I was thinking that, due to significant number of wikipedians in China, the Philippines and Singapore (see Category:Wikipedians by ethnicity and nationality) - all of which are within UTC+08:00 timezone, compared to Tokyo's UTC+09:00, we ought to replace (or add?) Tokyo timezone listed in the table with either: Singapore, Hong Kong or Manila. Any comments? (I suggested this at Wikipedia talk:Did you know but there was no response.) ќמшמφטтгמ torque 11:19, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Consensus about columns London and UTC
For the record, this edit to bring back the column UTC was done per discussion, which is archived at. —⁠andrybak (talk) 08:24, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
