There are a few issues regarding this formula being a linked github fork:

  1. It cannot be found via search ( https://github.com/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=timezone+formula )
  2. Any type of contributions on this formula do not show in contributor's activity graphs

The first one being really bad as it prevent people from finding this formulas as the original (forked) one is outdated.

It is possible to solve this by one of these steps (depending which one is easiest to accompish for the maintainers of the project):

Solution A: Emailing github support and asking them to unlink the "fork" link. Everything will be the same, we will only loose the "fork from daschatten/locale-fromula" message below the repositories name at the top.

Solution B: Recreate the repository (someone with access to organizatio has to remove this repository, create a new one (NOT doing it by fork) and then push all the contents.

Solution C: Ask if @daschatten plans to maintain his repository and perhaps he can just archive this. I've made an issue on his repository asking what is his stance regarding maintaining his project

Let me know what you think, I believe this formula would be a lot more popular (user & contribution wise) if it could be found via github at least.
