Hi,
thanks to all your valuable feedback!
@sam: I updated the tool to now (also) work with the time tag and the event
template.
@Kaartic: The timezone is shown in the "activation box". And if you hover
on a date/time it is shown completely including the timezone. I also
experimented with highlighting all converted dates, but haven't (yet) found
a nice form. I also added an option so that the timezone can be shown with
the date or separately. I'm open for further suggestions.
Cheers,
M

Hi,
due to the global health crisis we nowadays have more online events.
This
allows for people around the globe to participate but also means easier
handling different timezones is more important.
Since Wikimedians love to organize and schedule their events onwiki,
often
on Meta-Wiki, I wrote a tiny userscript and template that allows
organizers
to set up the conference program with UTC times and users can see them
in
their local timezone and local date format. It's of course also usable
for
all other kinds of pages.
Nice. That would be a useful tool, indeed.
I just have a doubt. Does this script by itself add information about the
timezone in which the time is shown? That would be helpful to quickly
identify if the time is localized or not.
It works and is useable but so far still in my
user namespace:
