How to use
The template needs three objects within it.
Height/Length
Conversion list:
- cm=centimeter
- m=meter
- ft=feet
- km=kilometers
- Example
{{Convert|1|m|cm}} converts one unit (a meter) into centimeters. This produces: 1 metre (100 cm).
Mass
Conversion list:
- lb=pound
- kg=kilogram
- MT=Metric ton
- Example
{{Convert|1|kg|lb}} converts one unit (a Kilogram) into pounds. This produces: 1 (Expression error: Missing operand for *. ).
Speed
Conversion list:
- km/h= Kilometers per hour
- mph=Miles per hour
- Example
{{Convert|1|mph|km/h}} converts one MPH (miles per hour) into Kilometers per hour. This produces: 1 mile per hour (1.609344 km/h).
Miscellaneous
- The template is set to British English by default. For American English spelling, use
|sp=us. For example:{{Convert|6.2|ft|cm|sp=us}}will change the spelling of "centimetres" to "centimeters". - To flip the display of conversions, use
|disp=flip. For example,{{Convert|6.2|ft|cm|disp=flip}}will flip the starting Imperial measurement as the converted measurement. - To specify the decimal point for a more accurate conversion, use
|sigfig=. For example,{{Convert|300|m|ft|sigfig=6}}will give a more accurate conversion of 300 metres (984.25197 ft) over 300 metres (984.25197 ft) (which uses{{Convert|300|m|ft}}).
