| 40px | This is a documentation subpage for Template:Infobox settlement/pref. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
This is a subtemplate of {{Infobox settlement}}. It is not intended to be used directly. It is called by the following templates:
Its purpose is to determine whether those templates call one of the subtemplates that displays metric units first (the default):
or one of the subtemplates that displays imperial units (U.S. units) first:
or the following subtemplates if an area is specified in dunams:
Usage
The template handles up to three unnamed parameters.
- Text which specifies preference to display either metric or Imperial units first. It is specified as
unit_prefin{{Infobox settlement}}, then passed asprefto one of three display subtemplates (/areadisp, /densdisp, /lengthdisp). - Country name, used to determine preferene when not given in first parameter. It is specified as
subdivision_namein{{Infobox settlement}}, then passed asnameto one of three display subtemplates. - The third parameter is only specified by the
/areadispsubtemplate, which passes the textarea.
The default is to display metric units first, so the template only checks these parameters for values that would indicate the need to display non-metric units first:
Imperial, English, UK, US, U.S., US Customary, U.S. Customary, StandardUnited Kingdom, [[United Kingdom]], United States, [[United States]], United States of America, [[United States of America]], [[United States|United States of America]]- if this template is called by the
/areadispsubtemplate, then it also checks parameter #1 fordunam(after converting it to lowercase)

{{Infobox settlement/pref|Dunam|United Kingdom|area}}In this example, the template never checks for "Dunam" because it previously found that parameter #2 contained the name of a country using imperial units. |
