Wikipedia 'List of...' Infobox: Non-Standard Unit Presence
This page tracks the presence of non-standard units of measurement in Wikipedia's 'List of...' articles. The data is collected from the infoboxes of these articles, where units such as 'handfuls' or 'a stone's throw' are sometimes used instead of standard units. This phenomenon is interesting because it shows how everyday language can influence structured data and how measurement conventions can evolve or persist informally. The numbers are calculated by monitoring the infoboxes of 'List of...' articles and counting the occurrences of non-standard units.
