This area is for minor notifications about the administration, maintenance and development of [[The Sims Wiki]]. It is primarily adressed to those who actively participate in these areas, but anyone is welcome. This page was created in an effort to have people communicate more about what they're up to, their current areas of interest and what's new regarding development of the wiki.

==Timer / Countdown template==
I took the told {{t|'''timer}}''' template and stripped it down to just the countdown and made a {{t|countdown}} template. Now you can use it in-line or create your own box to put it in. 'Countdown' is currently placed in the [[:Category:Test templates|Test templates]] category since I'm not sure about any kinks yet. [[User:LostInRiverview|LostInRiverview]] has made an effort to find out which time zone abbreviations it can handle on his talk page (archived and moved to [[Template talk:Countdown]]).

:As far as I can gather, only timezone abbreviations used in the main United States (or adjacent areas of North America), as well as UTC, apply. These zones are Pacific Standard/Daylight Time (PST/PDT), Mountain Standard/Daylight Time (MST/MDT), Central Standard/Daylight Time (CST/CDT), Eastern Standard/Daylight Time (EST/EDT), and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The difference between Standard time and Daylight time depends on the time of year, and whether a certain locality practices Daylight Saving/Summer Time. For this, and a couple other reasons, I would advocate that the countdown clock be used with (UTC) in most, if not all, circumstances. -- [[User:LostInRiverview|Patrick (LostInRiverview)]]<small> ([[User_talk:LostInRiverview|talk]])([[User_blog:LostInRiverview|blog]])([[Special:Random|random page]])</small> 15:53, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
