Metrication
I saw your comments in the General Reading Room. I have been working for many years on Wikibooks trying to make sure that all Cookbook recipes use metric units and then categorise them as such. It is a constant work in progress. Metric recipes can be found at Category:Recipes_with_metric_units and some recipes awaiting metric units can be found at User:Xania/Sandbox. I wish Wikibooks would adopt a policy to only use metric units but it seems to be a losing battle much to the detriment of the project.--ЗAНИA talk 22:23, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
