This is relatively trivial. Units are usually preceded by a space and a digit. The efficiency of unit conversion and unit formatting should be broadly similar because they both use this feature and human oversight to ensure the high level of efficiency demonstrated over the
469:
This function is already proven with previous non-bot and bot runs. Lightbots1 to 3 and
Lightmouse have formatted units routinely as part of unit gnoming for many years. It would be easier to run a new trial than to dig through the thousands of unit-related

The guideline is stable and has existed in various forms for a long time. Other editors and I have done many edits along these lines over a long period. I'm sure I could find examples in contributions list but it would be easier just to demonstrate by new

The format 'km/h' is the symbolic form for 'kilometres per hour'. This bot will replace non-standard formats (e.g. 'kph', 'kphr', 'kmh', 'kmhr', 'kmph', 'kmphr', 'km/hr', etc.) with 'km/h'.

When unit symbols are combined by division, use a slash to separate the symbols (e.g., for the metre per second use the symbol m/s, not mps) or use negative exponents (m·s−1).

Please could you answer

English text; that as yet unaccomplished task is too valuable to spend on Knowledge.

The bot will only operate where the abbreviation means 'kilometre/ers per hour'. Thus it will avoid non-speed uses intended to mean things like
397:"When unit symbols are combined by division, use a slash to separate the symbols (e.g., for the metre per second use the symbol m/s, not mps) "

Make unit formats consistent: 'kph', 'kphr', 'kmh', 'kmhr', 'kmph', 'kmphr', 'km/hr', etc. (including variations with upper case) to 'km/h'
