ಟೆಂಪ್ಲೇಟು:Miles-chains/doc
This is a documentation subpage for ಟೆಂಪ್ಲೇಟು:Miles-chains It may contain usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original ಟೆಂಪ್ಲೇಟು page. |
Converts distances measured in miles and chains to kilometres, linking to chain (length) without linking miles. This is to conform to WP:OVERLINK, which states that common units of length should not be linked. However, chains are not familiar to many readers, and therefore a link is provided.
This template is designed to mimic the function of the {{Convert}}
template, which is currently unable to make selective links.
If a wiki-link to chains is not required, or it is preferable to link to both miles and chains, {{Convert}}
can be used instead.
Usage
ಬದಲಾಯಿಸಿ{{miles-chains|4|mi|72|chain|km}}
produces 4 miles 72 chains (೭.೮೯ km)
Note that the parameters mi, chain and km are redundant in this template, but are provided to make conversion to the {{Convert}}
template easier if selective linking is ever implemented.
