It might just be me but I think in the menu for the biography when we edit should have a in menu converter and not just in profile controls for users(or just have the option to have both imperial and metric active)
I agree. It would be useful to have that option while compiling the form. Speaking of measures, I'm taking this opportunity to ask for clarification, even if someone may have already talked about it before. Today I contributed to Merios profile, adding her height and weight. European model, with EU/metric numbers taken from European sites. Yet, @RocketMan29 (nothing against him, just to clarify) converted the measures in imperial.
If both systems are allowed, why one system should have priority over the other one ?
@L4ser, I'm not sure I made an explicit change to her height and weight to imperial. My approach is to leave those as is unless there is reliable or predominant sourcing that uses imperial. Personally, I prefer metric when it has reliable support. I am guessing this occurred through some interaction with my account settings (I sometimes flip between showing imperial and metric) and that I made an unrelated edit at that time.
