I think this might fit better as part of the reference documentation[1]. Note that it also does not make sense to configure both ntpd and systemd-timesyncd, and that we (currently) have a hard dependency on the latter. There is a bug report about changing this, to allow setting up and using arbitrary time synchronization daemons[2], but it has not been implemented so far. It is possible to manually override the dependency[3], but this requires monitoring for updates to the original unit files, which is not very nice. Long story short: if you want, you could send a patch for the pve-docs repository to include information on how to setup systemd-timesyncd with internal NTP servers (see [4] for an intro to our reference documentation). Otherwise I will do the same, using your wiki article as a base. When bug#998 is fixed, I would extend this section in the reference documentation.
