The result of the debate was delete. While TfD is not generally the forum for settling legal questions, the facts in this case appear to be particularly straightforward. --MarkSweep (call me collect) 01:40, 6 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:PD-MYGov (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
This template is misleading and just plain inaccurate. The PM's website is "Copyright® 2006. All rights reserved. The Government of Malaysia". It is clear that the PM's office does not release its works into the public domain, and neither does the government of Malaysia. Johnleemk | Talk 19:48, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:UTC+10 (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Pointless, it's just someone too lazy to type "{{utc|10}}" instead of "{{UTC+10}}". – ugen64 00:33, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

oppose. Reason: you are wrong. UTC+10 is a page title. In {{{timezones}}} the page title is used to generate the current time. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 00:38, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- There are, what, 24 time zones? Why don't you just do {{timezones|zone=1}} with {{UTC|zone}} or something. Editing 24 pages to alter this template isn't exactly backbreaking work. – ugen64 16:32, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The already existing template {{utc}} gives the full date and time for the appropriate time zone - I don't see the need for another version. JPD (talk) 12:26, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I find this entire complicated mechanism unnecessarily crufty. What lasting encyclopedic value does showing the current time add? -- Netoholic @ 14:50, 24 March 2006 (UTC) (changed UTC refs above to {{utc}}). -- Netoholic @ 15:09, 24 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Could the timezone be a parameter for {{timezones}}? That probably wouldn't work for fractional time zones, so I'd lean towards keep unless {{utc}} is updated. TimBentley 04:29, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- It's not implemented for fractional time zones right now anyway, and even if it was, the templates I have TFD'd are just lazy implementations of {{utc}} (just look in the source of one of them). – ugen64 16:34, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: {{utc}} has been updated (I'll do work on {{timezones}} and {{current time}} later), probably wouldn't have actually messed up fractional time zones anyways. TimBentley 22:27, 25 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, useless. The encyclopedia should not speak in the present tense. It's expected to be put in print form at some point, and some of our mirrors might get broken at the next major software change, and never update, and blah blah blah. — Mar. 27, '06 [01:39] <freakofnur_xture |talk>
