View source for Placeholders/Time zones

'''Time zones''' are optional parameters used in some placeholders in the date category to determine the offset of time. 

If a date placeholder is not supplied with a time zone or the time zone provided does not match one from the below list, it will be based on UTC (Coordinated Universal Time).

== List of timezones ==
Housing uses a standardised list of time zones from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tz_database tz database], shipped alongside Java. If you are planning to enter these time zones, keep in mind that the IDs are case-sensitive.
