Jupiter weighs- 7.7.000.907.000.000.000

For the Formalhaut article

Many articles use Jupiter mass, but isn't there a better type of mass, called atom weights? Really, Jupiter mass is not a metric mass and so is really hard to calculate the difference. If it is done, can't it be made a metric mass for easier conversions? Albertgenii12 (talk) 22:38, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiproject scope

With recent talk at Talk:Jupiter of merging this article into Jupiter. I'm wondering why this, a unit of measurement article, in the scope of any astronomy related Wikiproject.

Should other units be part of astronomy Wikiprojects? kg? km?

I don't want to start a Wikiproject war!! I'm just wondering at the logic. HarryAlffa (talk) 18:03, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see any reason to exclude it from the astronomy Wikiprojects because this article is most likely to be expanded by members of the Astronomy Wikiprojects. Expressions like kg and km are much less specific than "Jupiter masses". -- Kheider (talk) 19:42, 19 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why wouldn't it be part of WikiProject Astronomy? It's not like it's used by people other that astronomers, physicists and astrophysicists. 76.66.196.139 (talk) 06:09, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
