[edit] Metric (SI) System
therichdude believes the metric system to be superior to all other measurement systems[1]. He will work to ensure that all measurements on Wikipedia are available in metric units, preferably only in metric. He believes that a metric only Wikipedia will be of greatest benefit to all, as even the English Wikipedia is used often by fully metric countries.
therichdude believes that it makes most sense to use a measurement system that has a common factor or base, and that this base should be the same as the base of the number system in common use (decimal), even though base 10 is perhaps less mathematically convenient than, say, base 12. He believes that the differing factors of the Imperial and American measurement systems, and that those systems have similarly named but different units, makes them completely unsuitable, as it is important that people know for sure what they mean when they quote a measurement unit.
