Standards of measure in the Medieval East
One of a substantial number of articles by the same user that consists of original research of no value. Egil 14:41, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
 * This is what Wikipedia has to say on the subject.
 * "research that consists of collecting and organizing information
 * from existing primary and/or secondary sources is strongly encouraged.
 * In fact, all articles on Wikipedia should be based on information collected
 * from primary and secondary sources. This is not "original research,"
 * it is "source-based research," and it is fundamental to writing an encyclopedia."


 * No vote as of yet. This appears to be only an (unwikified) list of the names of units of measure, presented without info about what they measure or where they were used.  Not sure I grasp how this is original research, assuming that the use of these units can be verified.  Better these than Satan's SI system.  Leaning towards cleanup and keep.
