It is: *Current* * Wiki Documents * *Proposed* * Wiki Documents * Use of default units is encouraged. Ask all mappers to specify the units for clarity, even if they are at default. Syntax is tight, specifying whitespace, restricting choices. Put the burden on parsing. Let the tagging be more human oriented. This is what people do anyway, so any parser that actually wants data is probably already doing this. Inconsistent treatment among tags. Unit tagging rules are cut & pasted. Use a template to spread the same guidelines to all tags, easing future updates. Either way, a cleanup of the recognized units is in order (e.g. km, m/meters/m, ft/feet/foot/" ). >> It's not a contradiction, it's a proposal. >So please move it to the “Proposal/” namespace. That's not possible for a working template, as far as I can tell, as the the template space is magic. I can add a DRAFT status. Note the template is not USED, so nobody other than readers of this list have seen it.
