The Clock script displays a minimalist UTC clock at the bottom right corner of Wikipedia pages.

Features

[edit]
  • The clock refreshes every minute to show the current UTC time.
  • The clock is always visible in the bottom right corner of the page.
  • The appearance can be adjusted via CSS using the .utc-clock selector.
  • On small screens, the clock is reduced in size and it's not displayed on content pages that are unlikely to include timestamps.

Installation

To install the Clock script, follow these steps:

  1. In your preferences, go to Preferences Gadgets. At the bottom of the "Advanced" section, click the "Install scripts without having to manually edit JavaScript files (documentation)" checkbox, then click the "Save" button.
  2. Return to this page and click the blue "Install" button.

Alternatively, you can manually install it by adding the following code to your common.js file:
