[edit]

While trying to find out what happened at the 2nd CGPM in 1897, I found this Web page in Hungarian that says "A hőmérsékletmérés néhány definíciója". Can anyone translate, please? -- Heron

This [1] looks like an English translation of the page cited by you. Following this, the phrase should mean "No resolutions were passed".--Ratzer (talk) 19:30, 6 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Three organizations

[edit]

Text includes "It is one of the three organizations established to maintain the International System of Units (SI) under the terms of the Convention du Mètre (Metre Convention) of 1875.". The other two should be explicitly names as such. 82.163.24.100 (talk) 20:46, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dotation?

[edit]

What is this, in the second paragraph? Is it a typo? JohnClarknew (talk) 05:47, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Nice catch. It is a French word for endowment. I replaced it with an English equivalent. --{{u|Mark viking}} {Talk} 00:01, 9 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

List of member nations

[edit]

The lists of members and associate nations are not needed here, because they exist already in Metre Convention (and that's the right place). Wassermaus (talk) 23:45, 8 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
