-I just removed a spam link someone added, and also a (now) dead link. But the following all seem to me to be dubious:
-*[http://w3.energistics.org/uom/poscUnits22.xml Units, Symbols, and Conversions XML Dictionary]
-*[https://www.unitwolf.com Units, Symbols, Exchange, Equations, Human Readable]
-*{{dmoz|Science/Reference/Units_of_Measurement/Software/|Units of Measurement Software}}
-*{{dmoz|Science/Reference/Units_of_Measurement/Online_Conversion/|Units of Measurement Online Conversion}}
-No explanation who energistics.org is; they will not even show a home page. Unitwolf is just another "conversion site", that thinks 1 stone is very slightly more than 14lbs. The dmoz stuff is now [[Curlie]], and the history of that page (with no redirect) suggests it is spammy. I suggest removing all of these. WP should not be hosting unvalidated lists of stuff, even though no doubt much of it is correct. [[User:Imaginatorium|Imaginatorium]] ([[User talk:Imaginatorium|talk]]) 19:09, 29 May 2019 (UTC)
-== So 2018 ==
-The article lists the definition of a [[kilogram]] as the "mass of the prototype near Paris". This statement was indeed correct in 2018, but today it is defined in terms of other base units. [[User:Dondervogel 2|Dondervogel 2]] ([[User talk:Dondervogel 2|talk]]) 09:05, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
