;Usage:
:<nowiki>{{ft2 to m2 | 1 | abbr | spell | precision | wiki}}</nowiki>

;Examples
:''[[WP:MOSNUM#Units of measurement|Manual of Style]] notation'': <nowiki>{{ft2 to m2|10000}}</nowiki> → {{ft2 to m2|10000}}
:''Abbreviated notation'': <nowiki>{{ft2 to m2|10000|abbr=yes}}</nowiki> → {{ft2 to m2|10000|abbr=yes}}
:''Fully spelled out notation'': <nowiki>{{ft2 to m2|10000|abbr=no}}</nowiki> → {{ft2 to m2|10000|abbr=no}}

''Italicized'' parameters are optional:
*Either '''num''' or '''1''' (an unnamed parameter) is required. This specifies the number of square feet to be converted to square meters. Please do not format this parameter; i.e., use 1234 instead of 1,234.
*'''''2''''' (a second unnamed parameter) is optional. This specifies the number of square feet to be converted for the end of a range. Please do not format this parameter; i.e., use 1234 instead of 1,234.
*'''''abbr''''' can take values of either ''yes'' or ''no''.
:{|

*''yes 
|both unit names will be abbreviated i.e. ''sq ft'' and ''m2''
|-

*''no

|}
:The default is to spell only the first unit name out as specified in the [[WP:MOSNUM#Units of measurement|Manual of Style for dates and numbers]] i.e. ''square feet'' and ''m2''.
*'''''spell''''' can take values of ''Commonwealth'', ''Com'', ''C'', ''BrE'' or ''UK''. For any of these values the spelling ''square metre(s)'' will be used. The default spelling is ''square meter(s)''. This is only meaningful when ''abbr'' is set to ''no''.
*'''''precision''''' is the number of decimal digits in the converted value. Defaulting to conversions to the most precise of the following.
:*conversions rounded down one decimal place as compared to the input value
:**note: Where a range is given the most precise of the inputs is used.
:**note: One square foot is of comparable size to ten square meters.
:or
:*conversions rounded to two significant figures
*'''''sigfig''''' specifies the number of significant figures in the converted value.
**This overrides '''''precision'''''.
**Where the conversion is of a range it is the number of significant figures in the first value which is specified with the second being rounded to the same level of precision.
*'''''max precision''''' specifies the maximum precision to round to.
*'''''min precision''''' specifies the minimum precision to round to.
*'''''wiki''''' specifies whether the names of the units should be wikified or not and can take values of either ''yes'' or ''no''. The default value is ''no''.

Capitalization of the parameters is unimportant.
