The annotations for unitSymbol, unitSymbolHtml, and unitSymbolUnicode could be improved to better indicate what each should be used for. Each of the definitions contains 'm?' as an example for square meter--this appears to be rendering error. The annotations could be rephrased without reference to it. Examples should also be separated into skos:examples.

unitSymbolUnicode could be improved with an example: The unicode for square meter is U+33A1.

gist:_percent uses the special character "%" as its unitSymbol, but unit symbols aren't supposed to have special characters. We could revise the annotation for unitSymbol or the symbol for gist:_percent.

#992 should be discussed first, since it makes this moot.

Yes, #997 cleared things up nicely.
