Agreed - I'd guess that the initial page was a sloppy copy of another page.  Eep is long gone, he can't be offended if you change it.  I could see a link to volume, or to other weights and measures, but slope?  Also, I'm not sure that "kilogram" or "kg" is used in any of the coded game information.  I thought it was just a shorthand adopted by players to refer to units of weight (or mass).  Since one unit of fluid weighs 1.00 and takes 1.00 volume, saying it weighs 1 kg and displaces 1 liter makes sense, even if the game doesn't specify units of measures.  [[User:Urman|Urman]] 20:32, 14 June 2009 (CDT)

I don't think it was a sloppy copy, I guess the ''See Also'' to [[slope]]s is there, because ''a slope'' is a standard unit like ''kg'' in Wurm. Makes sense to me to refer to other standard units. --[[User:Ulviirala|Ulviirala]] 08:45, 15 June 2009 (CDT)

I'm still wondering why there's a see also to slopes. Rael 20:08, 14 June 2009 (CDT)
