Hmm, I see metric distances (kilometers). Accessing from Germany. It's still using the English Wikipedia though, not the German one (which I think would have more local content).
PS: there's a side bar link to switch between miles and km, I might have pressed that (was expecting to see some sort of distance map though instead of switching between 'imperial' and 'modern' ;)
Could that be a UK thing? I wouldn't know tbh, because between mixing yards and miles versus sticking to imperial units in the 21st century, the latter is definitely crazier ;)

And mixes it with miles, too. Crazy decision.

Yep, we mix them up. Distance and speed in miles, fuel priced in pounds per litre.
To convert to meters, multiply by 1.
That's an imperial meter, a standard SI meter is about ten percent longer.
I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back home; they're not much bigger than two meters!
Multiply by 0.914

> Distances measured in yards for non-US destinations is an insult
FTFY. I live in Japan and it also shows me the distance in yards and miles.
