Two things to remember!
  • U.S. USERS: If you prefer meter over metre for your article, simply attatch |sp=us to the end of the template!
  • To make the units link to unit articles, add |lk=on to the end of the template! The manual of style suggests that you only link the first instance.

    Use in the following matter: {{convert|original value|original unit|conversion unit|round to}}

    Rounding: The number given for rounding rounds off the result to the power of 1/10 the rounding number. For instance, if the result is 8621 and the round number is '-2', the result will be 8700. If the result is '234.0283043' and the round number is '0', the result will be 234.
