IRIG standard 200-04 (PDF)
suggestion
I would suggest starting the article with a brief description of what IRIG time codes are, i.e. a dummed description of what they are and what are they used for and stuff, before writing the history of them. Most people, including myself, search terms in wikipedia to get a quick idea of those sort of technical terms. If needed, one can read on further to get more detail.
... my 2 cents.
