Replacement of "Cultural issues" with "Post-1960 changes"
I have replaced the section "Cultural issues" with a new section "Post 1960 changes" in which I have tried to take as many of the issues from "Cultural issues" that have a global impact and put them into perspective and at the same time show how and why SI has grown. I have also removed the map as it shows countries that have adopted the metric system, but not countries that have formally adopted SI. I am currently working on a new section to replace the section "International trade" which I have entitled "Worldwide adoption" in which I look at the US, the UK & Commonweaslth, ther EU and India's adoption of SI. (If you like visting building sites, feel free to look at my sandbox).

I trust that none of this invalidates the article's current "B" classification. Martinvl (talk) 14:56, 3 December 2012 (UTC)


 * In the notes section: "International Electrotechnical Commission (IRC)" should be replaced with: "International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC)" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.81.151.145 (talk) 12:08, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
