Should we have a separate article to cover the USN's discontinued uniforms, from the past? – Illegitimate Barrister (talk • contribs), 05:36, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

the more I think about it, the less I like the idea. Removing historical context from this article seems like a mistake. It would only turn this article even more into a catalogue of uniforms instead of an encyclopedic overview of the uniforms and their history. oknazevad (talk) 14:05, 5 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Support - Strong Conditional - Look at what occurred across the 1970's to 1980's, and Admiral Zumwalt was a major factor. Perhaps and article focused on that period of change then revert, with a strong insight of how it occurred. Wfoj3 (talk) 23:35, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Support - Where are the uniforms from 19th century? They are so different that they should have their own article. The Obsolete uniforms section only covers uniforms from the 20th century. - --AnalyticalHistoricalHobbyist (talk) 21:11, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

For simplicity in this article, Officers refers to both commissioned officers and warrant officers. Shouldn't be in the header. — Preceding

This is more common than the 8-point and probably the most worn uniform ashore, would be nice to have an image and mention of this practice. Drahgoone (talk) 06:15, 3 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
