{{ #ifeq: {{NAMESPACE}} | {{ns:10}} | This template is one of the [[:Category:Unit display|unit display category]] of templates. | }} 
These are templates which print figures with their units and converts them to either [[English system|English]] or [[Metric system|metric]] system too. The second value is in brackets. Both parameters should be unformated numbers, the first one is the actual value, the second one is the number of decimal digits for the calculated value. The numbers are then nicely formated.

If you append "| lk=on" to the template the units will be [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links)|wikilinked]], otherwise they will not be. The [[WP:MOS|manual of style]] suggests that you only link the first instance.

The [[WP:UNITS|Manual of Style Units Section]] specifies that you should spell out the primary unit in text therefore you should use the full version (where available) ''e.g.'' {{tl|Unit foot}}, in sentences and the abbreviated version ''e.g.'' {{tl|Unit ft}} in tables, info boxes, etc.

If the grammar of a sentence requires that the singular version of a spelled out unit is required append "| sing=on" to the template.

'''Examples:'''

* <nowiki>{{Unit km | 1487.27 }}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit km | 1487.27 }}
* <nowiki>{{Unit mi | 1487.27 | 2}}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit mi| 1487.27 | 2}}
* <nowiki>{{Unit sqkm | 1487.27 | 2 | lk=on }}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit sqkm| 1487.27 | 2 | lk=on }}
* <nowiki>{{Unit foot | 1487.27 | 2 }}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit foot | 1487.27 | 2 }}
* <nowiki>{{Unit foot | 1487.27 | 2 | sing=on }}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit foot | 1487.27 | 2 | sing=on }}
* <nowiki>{{Unit metre | 1487.27 | 2 | lk=on }}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit metre | 1487.27 | 2 | lk=on }}
* <nowiki>{{Unit metre | 1487.27 | 2 | lk=on | sing=on }}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit metre | 1487.27 | 2 | lk=on | sing=on }}

It is important to note that ''negative'' values are OK for the rounding parameter, which is very useful for converting approximate values:
* <nowiki>{{Unit ft | 14000 | 0}}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit ft | 14000 | 0}}
* <nowiki>{{Unit ft | 14000 | -1}}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit ft | 14000 | -1}}
* <nowiki>{{Unit ft | 14000 | -2}}</nowiki> renders as: {{Unit ft | 14000 | -2}}
