This module can be used to quickly add a new unit for use with {{tl|convert}}. When satisfied that a unit is working correctly, ask at [[Module talk:Convert]] for the unit to be moved to the permanent list of units.

See [[Template:Convert/unit sandbox]] for a good way to prepare unit definitions that can be copied into this page.

The following extracts from [[Module:Convert/data]] show examples that could be used to define a new unit. Any number of spaces can be used where blanks are shown in the following.
