| == New Conversion units ==
| |
|
| |
| The "Convert" template apparently needs an update to include other convertible units like power (hp, kW, PS, etc.) and torque (ft·lb, ft/in, N·m, etc.).

| ; Examples
| |
| # <code><nowiki>{{Convert|720|hp|kW|sigfig=3}}</nowiki></code> should result in this: '''720 hp (537 kW)'''.
| |
| #* Using <code><nowiki>{{Convert|720|bhp|kW|sigfig=3}}</nowiki></code> should also spawn the same result. The "kW" can be written in all caps as "KW", and the resulting numbers should not be changed.
| |
| # <code><nowiki>{{Convert|855|ftlb|Nm}}</nowiki></code> should result in this: '''855 ft·lb (1,160 N·m)'''.
| |
| #* Using <code><nowiki>{{Convert|855|lbft|Nm}}</nowiki></code> should also spawn the same result.
| |
| # <code><nowiki>{{Convert|537|kW|PS}}</nowiki></code> should result in this: '''537 kW (730 PS)'''.
| |
|
| |
| ; Why these new units should be added to the Convert template
| |
| Adding these new units to the Convert template will make life easier, especially when it comes to [[M12S Warthog CST|this page]], which has all the power and torque ratings written out normally due to the Convert template not accomodating for either power nor torque.
