It seems premature to mention about a time zone in this article when the authorities are still working out details and have not implemented anything yet. -Fnlayson (talk) 18:11, 7 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Metric vs. imperial measurements

This article -- and every other wikipedia article in English --needs to include traditional "imperial" measurements along with metric. The fact remains that a large majority of the world's native English speakers, those in the U.S., do not use metric. The U.S. shows not the tiniest movement toward changing that. 32.214.22.0 (talk) 19:41, 2 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
