Template:Right_ascension

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

This template is used to format the right ascension of a given coordinate.

{1}^h{2}^m{3}^s

Usage

{RA|hours|minutes|seconds}

hours^h minutes^m seconds^s

Note that all three arguments are optional.

{RA|hours|minutes}

hours^h minutes^m

{RA|hours}

hours^h

{RA||minutes|seconds}

minutes^m seconds^s

{RA|01|46|37.3761}

01^h 46^m 37.3761^s

This template may be combined with {val} and {+-} for uncertainties in time measurements:

{RA|hours|minutes|seconds} {+-|{RA||minutes|seconds}|{RA||minutes|seconds}

hours^h minutes^m seconds^s ^{+ minutes^m seconds^s}
_{− minutes^m seconds^s}

This is the TemplateData for this template used by TemplateWizard, VisualEditor and other tools. See a monthly parameter usage report for Template:Right ascension in articles based on its TemplateData.
