Talk:UCT (disambiguation)

Redirect

I've changed the redirect to Coordinated Universal Time, rather than University of Cape Town. UCT is widely used for keeping time on the internet and distinguishing between time zones. IMHO it is more widely used. --h2g2bob 20:24, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Forget I even exist, I've embarrassed even myself with this one --h2g2bob 20:26, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cape Town WHAT?

There's no way that the University of Cape Town should top this list when another university (in Prague) uses these initials and when one of the most-used abbreviations for Coordinated Universal Time is "UCT", AND there's an AIRPORT with that IATA code "UTC". IATA codes are UNIQUE, while the initials of universities are not. Someone with some alumnus pride or the agenda of advancing the University of Cape Town is hijacking Wikipedia for a promotional purpose and you should not let them do so. I had never heard of the University of Cape Town before today and I don't believe I will ever hear of them again for the rest of my life. Someone has a seriously overinflated idea of how important that University is. They do not rate having an article about them as the default destination for "UCT" nor as an "above-the-title credit" in the disambiguation-page when these initials are far more likely to refer to something else (in the mind of the Wikipedia user) than to refer to this University of Cape Town. When I type in "tiger" I don't want to find that someone all intoxicated with their LSU degree has routed me to "the mascot of Louisiana State University."74.64.105.76 (talk) 12:49, 22 September 2020 (UTC)Christopher L.
