  Comments:
"gsm" is quite commonly used for paper, and I see nothing wrong with it being here somewhere (vs. writing out grams per square meter). But we should be consistent.  This selection is outside my pay grade.

In spite of this being the wikipedia headword, the xref seems more commonly used.

I also removed [abbr].  Unless we are considering this an [abbr] of 米坪量, which doesn't that common.  Google shopping search for 坪量 actually presents numeric autocompletion for different paperweights (unlike this term).  坪量 and 斤量 both do a good job returning paper products(better than this term).
