:is the the key bit of information for me. The first is better because I can figure out what it means at a glance. The one with the spaces looks like someone's notes for a [[Bingo (American version)]] game. I'm sure that either would make sense in context, and I'm sure I could figure it out, but the first is more obvious.
:Also, if this is getting used in infoboxes or data tables, then the very small savings in the width might be wanted. [[User:WhatamIdoing|WhatamIdoing]] ([[User talk:WhatamIdoing|talk]]) 03:23, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
There are two issues here: spaces or no spaces between numbers and abbreviations, and whether the abbreviation for minute(s) should be "m" or "min". On the latter question, the longer abbreviation is asserted to be required due to ambiguity with "month", however in practice that only exists when it it appears alone - when accompanied by any other unit of time (hours, seconds, days, years) both are unambiguous due to context.
