Module:Convert/data/doc

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

This module is subject to page protection. It is a highly visible module in use by a very large number of pages. Because vandalism or mistakes would affect many pages, and even trivial editing might cause substantial load on the servers, it is protected from editing.

This Lua module is used on many pages.

To avoid large-scale disruption and unnecessary server load, any changes to this module should first be tested in its /sandbox or /testcases subpages. The tested changes can then be added to this page in one single edit.

Please consider discussing any 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.
