Template:Val/unitswithlink/doc

This is a documentation subpage for Template:Val/unitswithlink
It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page.

Purpose

Subtemplate for turning an easily typeable name for a unit into a proper scientific notation for the unit, including a link to a page about the unit. See {{val/units}} for a version that does not provide a link. If the template does not have an entry for the unit, it is returned "as is".

This template is used by {{val}} to translate the ul and upl arguments. When adding a unit of the type X/Y (eg. m/s), please consider adding a X·Y^-1 version as well (and name it X*Y-1).

Arguments

1 = The easily typable name of the unit.

Examples

`{{val/unitswithlink\|m/s}}`	→	m/s
`{{val/unitswithlink\|m*s-1}}`	→	m·s^-1
`{{val/unitswithlink\|MeV}}`	→	MeV
`{{val/unitswithlink\|kg}}`	→	kg
`{{val/unitswithlink\|whatever}}`	→	whatever (unimplemented)

Feel free to add new units if they are not implemented.
