Help me!
Hi! Totally new to this and I'm not sure this is the appropriate forum for my question, but any sense of direction would be helpful! I'm trying to edit a page, namely: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanosaur. Under the "Exhibits" section it claims that: "The American Museum of Natural History has a permanent exhibit of a 37 metres (121 ft) skeleton". However, all sources claim that the skeleton in 122 ft. Not a big deal, I know, but I thought a simple edit could still be useful. However, when I went to edit, the length is given as a conversion from meters, and I'm not sure what the best way of editing the length would be. Should I put a more exact measurement (37.1856 m), or is there a way to edit it so that feet are converted into meters instead? OR should I completely erase the conversion and simply put in the measurement in feet? Thanks much for any help!

 * Hi Nnnatalia, welcome to Wikipedia! I would change the conversion to change feet to meters like so:
 * 122 ft
 * This will show as: 122 ft. Hope that helps. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to reply here and I'll do my best to help! LoudLizard (📞 | contribs | ✉) 14:50, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
