The result was speedy delete. Given that all the recent edits from this user have been joke edits about his family, I'm gving this no credence. Probable hoax, or at least entirely misguided. SpinningSpark 22:59, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

Made up. Doesn't exist. This is long beyond the International Date Line. All lands in UTC+23:00 observe other time zones, commonly UTC-01:00 or around it.Mvqr (talk) 09:24, 31 December 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. No such number, no such zone. Thincat (talk) 09:54, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
- Delete since nothing actually uses this offset, the largest actual offset from UTC is UTC+14:00 and it would make more sense to use UTC−01:00 instead. Also unsourced, and since nobody uses the time zone there aren't likely to be any sources about it. Hut 8.5 10:31, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
- Delete. Not a real time zone; no sources are present in the article and I would be astonished if any existed (I found none in a quick search). It might even be borderline eligible for WP:CSD#G3 (blatant hoax) –
UTC+23:00 stretches as far as 135° east of the 180° longitude line and creates a very large fold in the International Date Line around the Pacific even in Europe
does not even correctly describe such a time zone (165° east of there, if we must place this on a map). Complex/Rational 19:23, 31 December 2022 (UTC) - Speedy Delete per WP:G3 (blatant hoax)
and/or WP:A7 (no indication of significance).There is no indication that any location has observed or will observe UTC+23:00. Frank Anchor 19:34, 31 December 2022 (UTC) - Strong delete - Wait, what? --MuZemike 20:55, 31 December 2022 (UTC)
