Template:Countdown

Format:

Alternatively:

To insert the actual countdown into the CountdownText, simply place the tag in the proper place in the string, as in:
 * CountdownText=The counter will reach zero in ! Watch out!

Valid EndTimes are as follows: † Note: You can specify a time without a time zone qualifier, but the countdown will be based upon the reader's time settings, which will result in different people seeing different countdowns! For consistency always select a standard timezone or specify a UTC offset.

Daylight Saving Time is not automatically accommodated. If you wish to accommodate for DST, either use a time zone indicator (EDT, etc.) or (more accurately) specify the proper UTC offset.

Options:

LeadingZeroes=yes can be specified to force the output to read:

0 days, 0 hours, 10 minutes, 42 seconds

Otherwise, the output will drop the leading zeroes:

10 minutes, 42 seconds
