Hi. I've noticed you've been going around and removing Imperial measures from articles entirely, replacing them with metric. It'd probably be better if you just added metric as an alternative; Wikipedia's got readers using both systems so it's more useful that way. Also, you can change the precision of a statement if you're not careful; "a hundred feet" means something different from "tens of meters". Bryan 21:07, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
Going through your contribution history I also notice rather a lot of personal attacks. You should know that Wikipedia has a policy against that sort of thing: Wikipedia:no personal attacks. Bryan 21:26, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
Persinal attacks? i dont quite agree, i havent said anyting against any specefic person. Just action that people choose to do. But ok i´ll quit that aswell a hundred feet is about 30 meters, tens of emters sounds better than 30s of meters dont u agree? and is it so wrong exacly to remove a inferior system to force people to understand they cant stay with that other inferior system?
- It may "sound" better but it's not as accurate. And as for whether it's "inferior" or not, that's a matter of opinion and not either of our calls to make. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Units and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. Bryan 08:22, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
