Pixels
Should Pixels be included in the blocks > metric table? For instance, a decimeter could be defined as 1.6 pixels in the default texture pack?

No voxels
Could the stuff about voxels please be reworded to say something about pixels instead? Otherwise I'll just remove it completely. Minecraft has no voxels. The measurements might be correct if it had (I didn't check), but the game just has 2D pixels rendered in 3D. When you go inside a block, you can see that they are completely flat. If they were voxels, they would have to have a certain thickness. In general, true voxels are very rarely used in games. You could describe the entire blocks to be voxels in the block grid, that would be much closer to the definition, but that's not what the article is talking about. Here is a picture of real voxels.
