== Templates and modules == Templates that invoke this module are: * {{t|convert}} * {{t|cvt}} {{green|1=(convert with abbr=on)}} The following modules are required: * [[Module:Convert]] β ''(this module)'' code to convert units * [[Module:Convert/data]] β unit definitions * [[Module:Convert/text]] β text messages, and parameter names and values The following modules are optional and are used only if required and if the module exists: * [[Module:Convert/extra]] β extra (temporary) unit definitions; used if a unit is not found in [[Module:Convert/data]] * [[Module:ConvertNumeric]] β code to spell an input value in words (only English is supported; however, see [[:vi:Module:ConvertNumeric]]) For Wikidata support the following modules are required: * [[Module:Convert/wikidata]] * [[Module:Convert/wikidata/data]] The following help pages are available: * [[Help:Convert]] β overview * [[Help:Convert messages]] β describes error and warning messages; messages link to this page so it is required when the module is copied to another wiki * [[Help:Convert units]] β overview of units A page containing a convert error is added to the following hidden category, providing the page is in a specified [[WP:Namespace|namespace]] (articles, by default): * {{clc|Convert errors}} Units are defined in the wikitext of the master list of units. * [[Module:Convert/documentation/conversion data]] β master list of unit definitions * [[Module:Convert/makeunits]] β translates wikitext from the master list to Lua * [[Module talk:Convert/makeunits]] β makeunits results; copy the text to [[Module:Convert/data]] [[Module:Convert/data]] is transcluded into every page using the convert module, so experimenting with a new unit in that module would involve a significant overhead. The [[Module:Convert/extra]] module is an alternative which is only transcluded on pages with a unit that is not defined in the main data module. [[Module talk:Convert/show]] lists all unit links so they can be checked.
