Suggestions for the citation needed at end of second paragraph in the lead

The [citation needed] at the end of second paragraph has the following inline comment:

<!-- unsuitable ref for this claim:<ref name="25th CGPM">{{cite web |url=http://www.bipm.org/utils/common/pdf/25th-CGPM-Convocation.pdf#page=32 |title=Convocation of the General Conference on Weights and Measures (25th meeting) |page=32 |publisher=International Bureau of Weights and Measures |access-date=2014-05-27}}</ref>-->.

I'm not sure why this is unsuitable.

The following are some citations (all taken from lead of the 2019 redefinition of SI base units) that are possible replacements of that [citation needed]: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]

Would any of these do? If you think so, you're free to insert one or more of them in the article's text without waiting for my approval. --RoyGoldsmith (talk) 15:12, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
