<!-- EDIT TEMPLATE DOCUMENTATION BELOW THIS LINE -->
==Notice==
<!-- The following was commented out 23 March 2015 where the template had not done it for a long time.
This template will add a link to the articles within UTC. Specifically it will also categorize articles into their corresponding time zone category. (ex.: [[:Category:UTC+0]] or [[:Category:UTC-5]]). In turn these will need to be added to [[:Category:Time zones]]. -->
This [[Wikipedia:Template|template]] is a partial [[Wikipedia:Avoid self-references|self-reference]] because it uses an equation to calculate the date and time. However, this date and time is easily verifiable and so is part of the encyclopedic content.

<!-- We need to add this to the template like the do at template:afd -->

If you wish for the reference to appear this template should be [[Wikipedia:Template substitution|substituted]] onto pages it appears on.

{{ {{BASEPAGENAME}} }}

'''The template makes a footnote reference stating''': Calculated using [[Wikipedia:Parser functions|Wikimedia Foundation Inc.]]. For more information see [[WP:CCT]]. To update time <span class="plainlinks">[{{SERVER}}{{localurl:{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAMEE}}|action=purge}} purge page cache]</span>.

==Usage==
<nowiki>{{</nowiki>currenttime
|place= ''Place name, e.g. '''Paris'''. Used in the display, not in the calculation. Default value is '''<nowiki>{{PAGENAME}}</nowiki>'''.''
|offset= ''Time offset, in hours, e.g. '''+1''' or '''0''' or '''-14''' or '''+7.5'''. Default value is '''0'''.''
|dst= ''System used for observing [[Daylight saving time]], can be '''Europe''' or '''North America''' or '''none'''. Default value is '''none'''.''
<nowiki>}}</nowiki>
Example: <code><nowiki>{{currenttime|place=Paris|offset=+1|dst=Europe}}</nowiki></code><br />
This produces: {{currenttime|place=Paris|offset=+1|dst=Europe}}
