This is a documentation subpage for Module:Convert/makeunits. It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original module page. |
The purpose of this module is to prepare the data used by Module:Convert to allow conversion between units of measurement.
Usage: Put one of the following lines (with nothing else) in a sandbox:
{{#invoke:convert/makeunits|makeunits}}
{{subst:#invoke:convert/makeunits|makeunits}}
Previewing the sandbox should display the wikitext that needs to be copied and pasted into Module:Convert/data. If a problem occurs, warning messages will be displayed to indicate that the unit definitions need to be fixed.
By default, the module reads the unit definitions from Module:Convert/documentation/conversion data.
The module contains table specials
which is used to insert a small amount of "built-in" data that is not currently defined in the input wikitext.
The module reads data from Module:Convert/text to allow localization of the table of units for use on another wiki.
