Description Killiondude 2013-07-17 23:46:14 UTC 
For usability reasons, Special:Nearby should allow an option to show units in imperial units. Currently it uses km and m.

I realize most countries have adopted the metric system and so should the US -- yada yada, but the reality is that imperial units are more familiar to US denizens and, from what I understand, parts of the UK.

I was wondering when this bug would get raised :)
We currently haven't really visited preferences on mobile.

We are keen to avoid the situation of having a huge mess of a page like Special:Preferences

I suspect we'll do this at some point but it's a matter of finding designers time...
