Template:Unit of length/doc

The template will convert a length in metres to various other units. It uses the  parser to convert.

Usage
name=unit name (optional, defaulting to the article's page name) m=distance of unit in metres accuracy=number of significant figures (optional, default = 5) nocat=to not add the page to Category:Units of length type " nocat= "

The resulting conversion will occur from the metre representation only. Any number larger than 10000 or smaller than 0.1 will be represented in Engineering notation, i.e. ×10 raised to a multiple of 3.
