Template:Mi2 to Km2/doc

Usage

This template was created exclusively as a subtemplate for {{Infobox Settlement}}.

Usage: {{Mi2 to Km2|mi2|km2|switch|round|link|magn}}

Ordinarily produces: km2 km² (mi2 sq mi)

If one of mi2 and km2 is omitted, it will be calculated by conversion of the other (which must be numerical or an error will be displayed).

Example:{{Mi2 to Km2|250}}

• Produces:250 sq mi (647.5 km²)

Setting switch to any non-empty value causes the metric value to be displayed first.

Example:{{Mi2 to Km2|250||switch}}

• Produces:647.5 km² (250 sq mi)

Set round to define the degree of rounding (e.g. 1 for one decimal place). Note:For the "link" and "mag" parameters to work, round must have a value.

Example:{{Mi2 to Km2|250|||3}}

• Produces:250 sq mi (647.497 km²)

Setting link to any non-empty value causes the units to be wikilinked to Square mile and Square kilometre.

Example:{{Mi2 to Km2|250|||1|1}}

• Produces:250 sq mi (647.5 km²)

Setting mag changes the wikilink behind km2 (for example, set it to 1 foo to link to 1 foo km²).

Example:{{Mi2 to Km2|250|||1|1|f00}}

• Produces250 sq mi (647.5 km²)
