Editing Module:Val/units/doc (section)

{{#ifeq:{{SUBPAGENAME}}|sandbox||{{High-use}}}}

The list of Val units is published at [[Template:Val/list]], and here is the place that produces that report. So preview {{tl|Val/list}} from the edit box to see your changes before saving them. The file format and syntax are mostly self explanatory.

* The [[field separator]] is two or more spaces. 
* You can enter new units in the "Unsorted units" section if you are not sure where else it might go.
* If the same ''unit code'' is defined twice on this page, the first one overrides the later one. 
* For new entries the style guideline is [[Wikipedia:UNITS]].
* Convert and Val share units.  If you have an issue with a unit pagename or a unit symbol, and that unit is not published at Val/list, you may decide to address it at [[Template talk:Convert]].  To override entries at Convert, make an entry here.
* If you're not in a hurry, you may notice when editing Val/units that it consists of two Lua string assignments, and Lua comments. Be careful.
