On metric

There was a consensus reached to use metric only for astronomy (and I think science in general)Some try to make the change in articles, but always get reverted. I'm in the U.S. I know both (and prefer metric) Readers who don't know can easily convert (and follow the wikilinks) Saros136 (talk) 05:49, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Hello Cole Dalton! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is tagged as an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to insure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring this article up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 941 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Elections reversions

I reverted some of your reversions to the congressional elections articles. If Azra's data is wrong, I appreciate your corrections. But please don't change the formatting edits I've made as well. Thanks! —Markles 12:00, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
