Add a tooltip to an abbreviation of a unit of measure showing the actual name of the unit.
Parameter | Description | Type | Status | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Number | number | Numerical value to format for display with the unit.
| Number | optional |
Unit abbreviation | abbr | Case sensitive abbreviation of a unit of measure. If the abbreviation contains a forward slash "/" it may be replaced with the character "p".
| String | optional |
Usage[edit source]
- With a formatted number:
{{Unit|number|abbr}}
- If a number is specified, it is formatted with a space " " as a thousands separator and a period "." as the decimal separator.
- With unit abbreviation only:
{{Unit|abbr}}
New units[edit source]
Recognized units are defined and documented in Module:Unit/data.
