Support as nominator --Pine^talk 10:54, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: some of the numbers (esp. around Nepal and Myanmar) are very hard to read. Any chance we could get a larger version? Does that work with PNGs? Clegs (talk) 14:10, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Added alternative. This one is larger and more aesthetically pleasing. O.J. (talk) 17:50, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Definitely alt much better than the original nomination. I think the date line could be better emphasized and labelled. It misses Antarctica, and does not indicate territories with daylight saving time. Oppose original for dizzying colour scheme, inconsistent font size and lack of detail due to limited resolution. --ELEKHH^T 20:32, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Comment Diagrams like these are much better as SVGs. Makeemlighter (talk) 22:00, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose I've been thinking for a while that some version of a timezone map needs featuring, but I don't think it's either of these for the various reasons already mentioned above, esp. Elekhh and Makeem. Matthewedwards : Chat 03:58, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Alt is out of date, with Samoa and American Samoa on different sides of the date line. Russia also changed something recently, IIRC, I'm not sure if this is correct here either. Aaadddaaammm (talk) 09:09, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- It's not out of date so far as I can see. Samoa and American Samoa are now on opposite sides of the date line. The Russian time zone changes of 2011 seem to all be up to date. 130.88.141.34 (talk) 14:39, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  - Oh wow, I got that news story very wrong! My apologies. I'm gunna support the alt now, it's pretty good! Aaadddaaammm (talk) 09:02, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose both Original for poor use of colours and factual inaccuracies and missing information (Keeling Is.; Tokelau; Lord Howe, Norfolk, and Chatham Is.; Maldives; and BIOT ) alt for lacking Antarctica and not being SVG. Matthewedwards : Chat 03:50, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
