Broken time zone discussion for xxx date text

I have started a discussion about the broken time zones at Template talk:Start date text. Not only does this family of templates look up the wrong time zone value for older dates, and render the time zone offset for the main example on the documentation page, related to the Attack on Pearl Harbor false, the ISO 8601 string in the metadata is utter nonsense.

Draft:Ticking (sound)

I am not sure exactly where the best place to post this is, but I have started a draft on ticking as a sound most often associated with clocks (I was astonished to learn that our article at the title, Ticking, is about an obscure kind of textile). Any thoughts on sourcing or otherwise improving this draft would be appreciated! BD2412 T 02:14, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Note: Now at Ticking (sound), but could still stand expansion. BD2412 T 19:24, 7 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Major rewrites needed on Roman calendar and related articles

This was something that was raised a few years ago on its talk page, but I've gone through some material related to the Roman calendar, and a while back I came to the conclusion that much of the article and some related articles (Mercedonius, which might need to be moved to Intercalaris, and the Leap year error section of Julian calendar) will need to be looked at and possibly rewritten entirely. Especially due to the interference of a certain LTA, there's a lot of places where they focus on explaining the classical sources and/or downplaying modern research, and in particular they focus on an outdated model of how the leap month is handled in the Roman Republican calendar.

Unfortunately I don't have the time or energy to deal with it myself, and probably won't for a long time. As such, is anyone here willing to help? Arcorann (talk) 13:54, 17 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This might be a good project for me. What sources would you recommend having on hand for this? If there is a good single reference or pair of references and no one else is interested, I could plan to begin it after finishing July 2. RowanElder (talk) 18:36, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Non-Archimedean time

The article Non-Archimedean time has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced for almost 20 years, this is a thing, but this page is synthesis of several ideas.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
