Kosovo

please note: Kosovo is now a country, please add to map 204.52.215.107 (talk) 21:40, 17 February 2008 (UTC) And Montenegro too. Both a no longer part of Serbia. Please update this map. 86.144.60.87 (talk) 22:26, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

• Montengro is independent, but we should follow Serbia. Kosovo is a Serbian state. 62.24.251.240 (talk) 09:39, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Crimea

Following the annexation of the Crimean peninsular by Russia, they've decided to switch to Moscow time. Can this be edited in?

Yes, Sevastopol and Crimea have switched to Moscow Time about an hour ago from now. Someone needs to change this on the map. WhyHellWhy (talk) 20:44, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

It's been a week now since the Crimean Peninsula switched to Moscow Time, however the map is still not changed. Someone has to take the action of changing the map. 99.225.193.121 (talk) 02:28, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

I have added a request at the Graphics lab, but no one has replied. I couldn't do it myself since Inkscape doesn't recognise the border and I want to get the map as accurate as possible. Frenzie23 (talk) 18:18, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

Frenzie23, if you want to get the correct borders for Crimea then I suggest transferring the current map colors to this newer map of Europe. It has a more accurate depiction of Ukraine and Crimea, so it will be a lot easier depicting the information. --KronosLine (talk) 22:27, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

I'll try to change the map and depict the time in Crimea on October 26, where Russia moved clocks back. --Brateevsky ^{(talk to me)} 18:51, 28 September 2014 (UTC)

Iceland

Shouldn't Iceland be blue like the other countries in the WET time zone?--81.174.45.92 (talk) 22:18, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I don't know if you noticed, but Iceland *is* blue, as blue represents the WET time zone. The countries in lighter colours do not use DLS (Daylight saving time). Iceland does not use DLS, explaining the lightnessness of the blue.

Lithuania

There is mistake - Lithuania doesn't use CEST since 1999. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dpupkov (talk • contribs) 10:13, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Faroe Islands

A note to anyone using this image as a source. The Faroe Islands does not use CET (or any UTC+1 timezone). It uses GMT with DST as appropriate. (I don't know how to get this figure updated.) -- u9 16:04, 1 July 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.235.227.2 (talk)

That's a good point. Hopefully it'll be changed when the map is updated to reflect the changing of Kaliningrad Time. 2.102.77.93 (talk) 20:23, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Ukraine

Ukrainian parliament rolled back previous abandonment of DST. So it's EET/EDT +2/+3 from now on. Please update a picture Serguei Trouchelle 15:51, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

central european time= brown?

on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenwich_Mean_Time it descibes central european time as brown. Assuming I haven't recently developed a form of color blindness, I'm pretty sure that's red. I'm going to leave it because it seems to silly of a mistake that i feel I might be missing something but if anyone can confirm its a mistake or not on purpose, please change it.

Someone needs to Update Crimea

Crimea has officially moved its clocks 2 hours ahead to Moscow time. Abrahamic Faiths (talk) 20:34, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

Russia ("Permanent" Daylight Saving time)

According to this article, Russia observes "year-round" DST, which means that it should be green, not light green. Please correct me if I am wrong. If I am right, please tell me so that I can change it. Frenzie23 (talk) 18:15, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

If I understand, if the color of some country is "light" (light-green, light-blue, etc.) the country uses one time throughout the year, without any shifting of time. For example, it's Belarus and Iceland. In Russia, for example, Moscow Time is UTC+4 whole year. So Russia should be depicted as light-green. The phrase "Russia observes "year-round" DST" meens that Russia now uses time which is "summer time" (DST) for 1991-2011. --Brateevsky ^{(talk to me)} 18:51, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
