Convert from one foot to 12 inches or 30 cm?
Should we convert from one foot to the equivalent in centimeters (as in this edit) based on the fact that non-US readers will be unfamiliar with either feet or inches; Or should we convert from one foot to 12 inches (as in this edit) as most readers will be from the United States? The remainder of the article is consistent in using Imperial measures and converting to metric units. Alansohn (talk) 20:30, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
 * The usual conversion should be from a U.S. customary unit (feet) to a metric unit of similar scale (meters), in all cases of length. It doesn't make much sense to display conversions to units in the same system of measurements. A slightly more extreme example of the values present in the article demonstrate this; waves of 15 ft (4.6 m) is a much more sensible conversion than 15 ft (180 in). Personally, I would convert one foot to 0.3 meters, so as to keep the units consistent for larger values of feet.  TheAustinMan (Talk·Works) 03:26, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

sypnosis -> history
Why is the history for an extratropical cyclone it's "meteorological synopsis", and the history of a tropical cyclone it's "meteorological history"? Hurricanehuron33 (talk) 14:47, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
