Module:UnitPlural
| This module is rated as beta. It is considered ready for widespread use, but as it is still relatively new, it should be applied with some caution to ensure results are as expected. |
Function main
The main function takes a number and unit name (|quantity=) and an optional language code (|lang=) from the frame.
It returns the quantity with proper plural units in the given language, if it can.
It will find use when the quantity is returned from Wikidata, so that the numerical value is not yet known.
Examples
{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=1 week}}→ 1 week{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=3 week}}→ 3 weeks{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=3.50 week}}→ 3.50 weeks{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=1 foot}}→ 1 foot{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=3 foot}}→ 3 feet{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=1 mile per hour}}→ 1 mile per hour{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=3 mile per hour}}→ 3 miles per hour{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=1 standard gravity}}→ 1 standard gravity{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=3 standard gravity}}→ 3 standard gravities{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=1 foot}}→ 1 solar mass{{#invoke:UnitPlural |main |quantity=3 solar mass}}→ 3 solar masses
Function plural
Function plural is equivalent to function main(frame), but takes parameters for use in other modules. The langcode is optional and is "en" by default on enwiki.
- quant = plural(quant, langcode)
Function pl
Function pl returns the plural of the unit name, and takes parameters for use in other modules. The langcode is optional and is "en" by default on enwiki.
- unitnameplural = pl(unitname, langcode)

findLang takes a "langcode" parameter if if supplied and valid.
Otherwise it tries to create it from the user's set language ({{int:lang}})
Failing that, it uses the wiki's content language.
It returns a language object.
