Wikipedia Contributing Writer Nixes Unies


After taking the time to accurately include the unies to Wikipedia page about the 2000s. It seems that the users and contributing writers are quick to respond to any new name. While it is good to see Arthur Rubin's deletion of the unies, it isn't fair.

Read up on the discussion with Arthur Rubin, a mathematician. We're discussing the different names of the decade. My argument is that uni- and deci- are both units of measurement.

The only names for the decades appearing as units of measurement are the ones that I've proposed. Why is it taking so much to convince people that unies makes the most sense?
