Template:Daylight saving active - Wikipedia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

(Redirected from Template:Daylight saving in time zone)

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template returns either 0 or 1 to indicate if daylight saving time (DST) is active in the given time zone region:

0	DST is not active
1	DST is active

See below for the currently supported time zones. Note that if DST is only partially observed in a certain time zone, this template returns 1 if DST is active in that part (even though it is not observed/active in the other part).

During DST, the clock is set one hour ahead of standard time.

Usage

{{Daylight saving in time zone | time zone abbreviation | date/time value}}

Template parameters[Edit template data]
This template prefers inline formatting of parameters.
Parameter		Description	Type	Status
time zone abbreviation	`1`	Abbreviation of the time zone for which it is determined if DST is active. If no time zone is given or if the given time zone is not supported, then the output will default to 0. Example CET	String	suggested
date/time value	`2`	Date and time for which it is determined if DST would be active in the given time zone. By default, if no value is given, it is determined if DST is active at the current time. Example 6 April 2018 23:00 CET	Date	optional
