Revision as of 04:33, 12 July 2018 by Wikipedia>Zyxw (Add conversion for metres so "1.98 m" will output "1.98 m (78 in)". Check for existing conversion to metres so "78 in (1.91 m)" will not output "78 in (198 cm) (1.91 m)". Tested first with /sandbox and /testcases.)
This is one of three templates used to automatically add conversions of length measurements displayed by infoboxes, such as the |reach=
parameter in {{Infobox boxer}}
or the |spike=
and |block=
parameters in {{Infobox volleyball biography}}
.
- Template:Infobox person/length changes text for units of length to the abbreviations "in", "cm" or "m", then passes the string to:
- Template:Infobox person/length/locate which replaces any instances of
with a space, and determines the positions of "in", "cm" or "m" within that string, all of which is passed to: - Template:Infobox person/length/switch which does the conversion
