Change local timezone for orwiki
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

On or.wikipedia.org, if there is a visit from an IP address then it shows the default time as UTC but for registered user's it is normal (Local time IST).
Is it normal? Can't we set the recent changes time log according to the local time.
Please have a look at the screenshot. Let me know if more information needed. Thank You.

It is a question of default timezone. The default timezone is UTC, but the server admins can set $wgLocaltimezone to the correct timezone for your location/wiki.

or.wikisource.org is already using Asia/Kolkata

Yes, it is already implemented in or.wikisource.org and it's showing correctly.
But we also have to set $wgLocaltimezone to the Asia/Kolkata timezone for or.wikipedia.org. Can someone do this task? Do I need to create a new task for this?

Hi,

I can see there has been a change at gerrit. I have started a consensus and already got two supports. Hope all will support. My question is do I need to create a new task for this? Please suggest. Thank You.

The URL is the reason of non-English URl. There is no solution till yet besides short URL.
