Whatever you do, make it client-side. It would be great to expose type
information with an attribute in HTML, so that it can be used for
client-side unit conversions. Ideally the typed information comes
directly from wikidata (and can be fed to nice table/pie chart/whatever
widgets), but it should also not be too hard to mark up data that lives
on the wiki the same way.
