This template accepts a track gauge and returns that defined track gauge well formatted, plus the converted size value by another unit:

  • {{Track gauge|1520 mm}}१,५२० mm (4 ft 11 2732 in)
  • {{Track gauge|4 ft}}4 ft (१,२१९ mm)

Extra options are available:

  • {{Track gauge|1520 mm|lk=on}}१,५२० mm (4 ft 11 2732 in)
  • {{Track gauge|1520 mm|al=on}}१,५२० mm (4 ft 11 2732 in) Russian gauge
  • {{Track gauge|1520 mm|allk=on}}१,५२० mm (4 ft 11 2732 in) Russian gauge

The first parameter specifies the gauge:

  • {{Track gauge|1435 mm}}१,४३५ mm (4 ft 8 12 in)
  • {{Track gauge|4 ft 8.5 in}}4 ft 8 12 in (१,४३५ mm)
  • {{Track gauge|4 ft 8 1/2 in}}4 ft 8 12 in (१,४३५ mm)
  • {{Track gauge|56.5 in}}4 ft 8 12 in (१,४३५ mm)
  • {{Track gauge|Standard gauge}}१,४३५ mm (4 ft 8 12 in)

Rail track gauges can be entered as they are defined: in units mm or ft in. Also common accepted names can be used, see below.

The input value (a length, in metric or imperial units) must be a defined track gauge. Currently 137 gauges are defined by metric units, and 136 by imperial units. Some are defined in both unit sytems, in both, such as the standard gauge.

  • When an input value is not recognised by the template, the template simply returns the input as it is: {{Track gauge|25in}} → 25in
The page with this unknown input is also listed in a maintenance category, in the background, that signals interested editors that there is a new rail gauge used in Wikipedia. More on this below.
  • Some gauges in metric are defined in metres: 1 m is recognised. However, it is not available for all metric defined gauges. Using mm is a safer bet.

Formatting input

सम्पादन

When entering a track gauge (like {{Track gauge|1435mm}}, these are formatting options. Keep in mind that only defined gauges are recognised.

Spacing is free, and fractions can be used in imperial units. Primes (' and ") may be used for [foot, inch]. Any [foot, inch] size can be entered in all-inches (4 ft 8 1/2 in equals 56 1/2 in and 56.5 in).

  • Names can be universal, being defined worldwide. For example: Iberian gauge, १,६६८ mm (5 ft 5 2132 in) Iberian gauge. Other names can be localor culturally restricted, for example the name "Cape gauge" is used in South Africa for 3 ft 6 in (१,०६७ mm), but not in Japan (in Japan that same track gauge is not named).
  • Also, two sizes can lead to one gauge name.

Established gauge names can be entered. The word "gauge" can be omitted. Case-insensitive (A=a). See also the |al=, |allk= parameters (below), to show a gauge name in the outcome.

For articles written in US-English, it is possible to set parameter |engvar=en-US. In this situation, the US-English spelling is shown (metER):

Why not use {{Convert}}?

सम्पादन

To convert a track gauge, using {{Convert}} comes to mind. For example, standard gauge:

  • {{Convert|1435|mm|ftin|abbr=on}} → 1,435 mm (4 ft 8.5 in)
However, this has some disadvantages. First of all, track gauges are defined by an institute, not just measured. The list of those defined track gauges is limited, and overseeable (today some 270 physical sizes are defined).
Using {{Track gauge}} allows us to track (follow) all articles with a specific gauge. This way the list can be made more accurate, correct and complete.
Also, the track definition can be directly linked to the sourcing article: १,०६७ mm (3 ft 6 in).
Further more, the template allows to recognise named gauges such as "Russian gauge".

Tracking category

सम्पादन
{{Track gauge}} detects that an undefined gauge is entered, and signal the page for maintenance. For example, metre gauge is only defined in metric. Entering an imperial size would categorise that article in Category:Articles using template 'Track gauge' with unrecognized input (०).
This is the TemplateData documentation for this template used by VisualEditor and other tools; see the monthly parameter usage report for this template.
