There is a Wikipedia article of the same name

I was not a contributor to the WP article. This article was written and formatted from scratch. It has some content from the WP article and it is much shorter because I thought that the WP article was much too wordy, got into too much detail and went off on some unneeded tangents.

Section out of place ?

The Summary of large number names section seems out of place, since the article presents ppm, ppb and ppt. Should we keep it? Olier Raby 22:43, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
