It is a duplicate of the File:Time zones of Europe.svg and is unused in Wikipedia, and that is why it should be deleted. --Maphobbyist (talk) 19:10, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I retracted the deletion request, since the necessary changes were made to keep this file distinct (and must remain so) so it can stay. And I think the administrators will decide to keep it. --Maphobbyist (talk) 18:30, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Indeed many copies are made from one file, and they are often identical to each other and are often not updated. In this case there is more than one copy and they are the same. It doesn't make sense to keep copies. Artoxx (talk) 22:17, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: It's not a copy. It includes the Azores which are on a different time zone. An IP decided to remove it from every article it was placed on. I reverted these changes. I'm sure the Portuguese Wikipedia would appreciate all of Portugal being represented, which was rejected on the original file. Rob984 (talk) 13:34, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. (sorry for my poor English). Well, it's not duplicate of the File:Time zones of Europe.svg — because it contains the information about timezones on Canarian islands (Spain) and on Azores (Portugal). Part of this file may be useful for articles "Time in Spain" and "Time in Portugal". Also, as I understand, Commons rules don't require that every file on Commons should be used in Wikipedia. So there are no reasons to delete this file. Maybe it's not such informational (I hope that there will be the file about timezones in Eastern Europe, Western Russia, Turkey and Caucasus — I'm making it), but it's another issue. --Brateevsky {talk} 16:55, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Kept: Technically, the two archipelagos are not in Europe, which is probably the reason the other file does not show them, However, as noted, this may be useful in certain cases. .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 10:47, 2 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
