Dictionary entry

[edit]

This is a dictionary definition. It should not be an encyclopedia article. It can be defined along with related units of measure in the speed of light article. -Eric talk 12:05, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The light-year article is the appropriate place to describe the concept of expressing distance in terms of how far light travels in a given time interval, that term being the most widely known one for this approach to distance measurement. Substituting 'year' with other units of time measurement and making a stub on each one is unnecessary clutter. A simple list at the end of the light-year article will suffice. -Eric talk 12:30, 25 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
