Please do not change the decimal prefixes to binary ones without a very good reason; there have been a lot of debates over this in the past, and there is currently a consensus for leaving things as they are. Yes, it's formally incorrect, but that's the consensus. --Pak21 14:42, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
Binary prefix changes
I noticed you recently changed several article to include KiB/MiB prefixes. Please do not makes these changes because they are against WP:MOSNUM. MOSNUM says There is no consensus to use the newer IEC-recommended prefixes in Misplaced Pages articles to represent binary units. It also goes on to say stay with established usage in the article, and follow the lead of the first major contributor.. The original style used in the articles you changed can clearly be seen to use KB and MB. As you can also see you edits have been reverted by at least three separate editors.
