Time zone of places in Alberta.
Shouldn't the tine zones in Alberta places look like this [[Central Time Zone|{{abbr|AT|Alberta Time}}]] (the Alberta Time pop-up is a bit hard to see giving AT? You could use [[Central Time Zone#Canada|AT}}]] giving AT but I think the first is the best. I based on Alberta’s new time system that would seem to be the name.

- Thanks for that link. I wasn’t aware that the government had officially promulgated a new name, as the legislation didn’t contain one – it just allowed a government minister to designate a name. I had a feeling it was going to be “Alberta Time” but I just went with CST for now. I’ll probably do another round of edits in a few days. I like your suggestion of using abbr markup.

- I've been using it for a while because you get boxes with [[Central Time Zone|MST]] which doesn't explain the abbreviation. CambridgeBayWeather (#1 deranged), Uqaqatigijaa (talk), Huliva 19:20, 27 June 2026 (UTC)
- After more thought, I think we should spell out “Alberta Time” in infoboxes. MOS:SOURCEABBR advises against creating acronyms, and AT conflicts with the established abbreviation for “Atlantic Time”. Even with {{abbr}} markup, “AT” could cause confusion. The infobox item will wrap onto two lines, but I don’t think that’s a big deal. Indefatigable (talk) 19:06, 30 June 2026 (UTC)
