RN date/time before 1805

Before about October 1805, the Date used by the Royal Navy changed at noon; the noon before the corresponding change on land. That a seems worth mentioning, and there is probably no more appropriate page. http://www.merlyn.demon.co.uk/moredate.htm#ODs links to references. 82.163.24.100 (talk) 19:49, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Article outdated: for decades,GMT is just an alias for UTC+00

This article refers constantly to GMT, stressing it in preference to UT1. For decades, the term GMT has just been an alias for UTC+00. Has the article simply not been updated or is there a modern reliable source for professional users that regards its continuing use as valid? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 19:38, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

Need more on ship's time

I feel like we either need a separate article on Ship's time, or broaden the scope of this one and possibly rename it. There is very little here on what was done before 1920, and what's there is unsourced. For example the Royal Navy used to start each day at local solar noon. GA-RT-22 (talk) 19:08, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
