--[[
TODO Too many items to list, but following are some points:
- Output needs rather than space in several places.
- Some conversions require two outputs: {{convert|55|nmi|km mi}}.
- Some units have two values: {{convert|3.21|m|ftin}}.
- Remove commas from input numbers; add to output (always?).
- Use U+2212 MINUS SIGN for input + output number, not '-'.

--[[-----BEGIN DATA TABLE-----
Plan to write a program to generate the conversion tables below.
The input would be a text file in human-friendly format, and
the output would be the following tables.
When a lot of data is added, it might be useful to put this in another module.
Values from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units
Check with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Convert/list_of_units
