Hi Jean-Fred,

 

That is a very good solution! It is very precise because it also tells you what you were measuring and easy to implement too. I would be all for your solution!

(And let me share our measurement nightmare: https://www.rijksmuseum.nl/nl/search/objecten?q=BK-1995-3&p=1&ps=12&ii=0#/BK-1995-3,0 an 18th century mantelpiece. I am not going to upload this item now, but a solution like yours would create some sort of order in this chaos).

 

Best wishes

lizzy

Hi Lizzy,

 

Thank you for your work !

 

Formatting it like

{{size|cm|height=379.5}} {{size|cm|width=453.5}} {{weight|kg|337}}

seems like the most logical course, if you're not sure all the units

for height/width will be the same.


Thats a great solution! Thanks!

 

Tangentially to that: for a while now I was playing with the idea of adding an extra parameter to {{size}}.

For media like <https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Confirmation_du_roi_Louis_VI_le_Gros_1_-_Archives_Nationales_-_AE-II-132.jpg>, I had dimensions for the piece of parchment and the seal. I was thinking of something like {{Size|unit=cm|diameter=9|part=seal}}. Would that be useful in your opinions ?
