Template:Miles-chains/doc

Converts distances measured in miles and chains to kilometres, linking to chain (length) without linking miles. This is to conform to WP:OVERLINK, which states that common units of length should not be linked. However, chains are not familiar to many readers, and therefore a link is provided.

This template is designed to mimic the function of the convert template, which is currently unable to make selective links.

Usage

 * produces

Note that the parameters mi, chain and km are redundant in this template, but are provided to make conversion to the convert template easier if selective linking is ever implemented.
