Module:Convert/data/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Module:Convert/data.
It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original module page.

This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature state, is considered relatively stable and bug-free, and may be used wherever appropriate. It can be mentioned on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users. To minimise server load and avoid disruptive output, improvements should be developed through sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing.

This module can only be edited by administrators because it is transcluded onto one or more cascade-protected pages.

This Lua module is used on approximately 1,480,000 pages, or roughly 2% of all pages.
To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This page defines the conversion data used by Module:Convert. All documentation (from Module:Convert/doc) is at that page.

Do not manually add units to this page. First add the unit definitions in Module:Convert/documentation/conversion data. And then update this page by copying the results from Module:Convert/makeunits (those results appear at Module talk:Convert/makeunits).

Any changes should first be tested at Module:Convert/data/sandbox—see Module:Convert/sandbox/testcases.

New units can be manually added at Module:Convert/extra as a temporary measure before being incorporated into this main table.
