Most common questions
- Q: When using {{convert}} why does the answer sometimes seem a bit off?
- A: This template takes into account the precision of the supplied value and generally rounds the output to the same level of precision. If you need to change from the default output precision, see rounding.
- Note: This can cause whole numbers that end in one or more zeroes to be converted less accurately than expected.
- Q: What are all the possible units (kg, lb, m, cm, ft, in, °C, °F, km, mi, nmi, mph, km/h, and so on)?
- A: See Help:Convert units for an introduction and Module:Convert/documentation/conversion data for the complete list.
- Q: I've been using Convert for some time and am pretty comfortable with its basic features. Does it have other features which it would be worth my while to learn about?
- A: Almost certainly. Start with Help:Convert.
