Line 1: :''~~see also~~Parent: [[Help:~~Tildes~~Time]]''▼ ~~{{wikipedia\|Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)}}~~ :''~~Parent~~see also: [[Help:~~Contents~~Signatures]]'' [[electowiki]] uses [[#UTC\|UTC]] as its timezone. It's possible to use [[#Timestamp\|several tildes]] to insert the timestamp in the article. Read on for more.... == UTC == {{wikipedia\|Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)}} '''UTC''' is Universal Coordinated Time. ~~Ha ha, I'm just kidding~~Actually, it's "Coordinated Universal Time" according to [[wikipedia:ISO\|ISO]]. It's basically the "standard" timezone for the world. All timestamps on [[electowiki]] are in UTC. See [[wikipedia:UTC]] to learn more. == Timestamp == {{wikipedia\|Help:Signatures}} ▲:''see also: [[Help:Tildes]]'' With [[MediaWiki]], it's possible to insert the timestamp of the change you are making into a talk page (or into an article). Four tildes in a row (i.e. "<code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>") puts your username and a timestamp (whatever the time is on the server when you save your changes) and five tildes in a row (i.e. "<code><nowiki>~~~~~</nowiki></code>") puts '''only''' the timestamp. See [[Help:Signatures]] for more about how "<code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code>" and "<code><nowiki>~~~~~</nowiki></code>" are expanded in [[Help:wikitext\|wikitext]] [[Category:Help]]
