Module:Convert/extra/doc

This module can be used to quickly add a new unit for use with {{convert}}. When satisfied that a unit is working correctly, ask at Module talk:Convert for the unit to be moved to the permanent list of units.

See Template:Convert/unit sandbox for a good way to prepare unit definitions that can be copied into this page.

The following extracts from Module:Convert/data show examples that could be used to define a new unit. Any number of spaces can be used where blanks are shown in the following.
