Template talk:Convert/unit sandbox
To see the current results, it may be necessary to .
Information from the following may be copied, then pasted into Module:Convert/extra to define a new unit.
- Any units already in Module:Convert/extra should not be removed—add new units by inserting them after the last "
},". - Convert uses Module:Convert/data to look up a unit, and only uses Module:Convert/extra if the unit is not found in the main data. That means the "extra" module can only define new units—units defined in the "data" module cannot be modified in the "extra" module (if needed, ask at Template talk:Convert).
-- Conversion data used by [[Module:Convert]] which uses mw.loadData() for
-- read-only access to this module so that it is loaded only once per page.
-- See [[:en:Template:Convert/Transwiki guide]] if copying to another wiki.
--
-- These data tables follow:
-- all_units all properties for a unit, including default output
-- default_exceptions exceptions for default output ('kg' and 'g' have different defaults)
-- link_exceptions exceptions for links ('kg' and 'g' have different links)
--
-- These tables are generated by a script which reads the wikitext of a page that
-- documents the required properties of each unit; see [[:en:Module:Convert/doc]].

-- Do not change the data in this table because it is created by running --
-- a script that reads the wikitext from a wiki page (see note above). --
