• |reach={{Convert|78|in|cm|0|abbr=off|lk=on}} → 78 in (198 cm)

Exceptions

Does not replace numbers in manually entered conversions, but does replace unit names with abbreviations (examples intentionally show incorrect conversions):

• |reach=78 inches (191 centimeters) → 78 in (191 cm)
• |reach=78 inches (1.91 meters) → 78 in (1.91 m)
• |reach=198 centimetres (71 inches) → 198 cm (71 in)
• |reach=1.98 metres (71 inches) → 1.98 m (71 in)

Does not replace numeric output of conversion templates such as {{convert}}, but does replace unit names with abbreviations (examples intentionally show different precision than usual):

• |reach={{convert|78|in|cm|1|abbr=off|sp=us}} → 78 in (198.1 cm)
  • output of convert template: 78 inches (198.1 centimeters)
• |reach={{convert|78|in|m|3|abbr=off|sp=us|lk=on}} → 78 in (1.981 m)
  • output of convert template: 78 inches (1.981 meters)
• |reach={{convert|198|cm|in|2|abbr=off|lk=on}} → 198 cm (77.95 in)
  • output of convert template: 198 centimetres (77.95 inches)
• |reach={{convert|1.98|m|in|2|abbr=off}} → 1.98 m (77.95 in)
  • output of convert template: 1.98 metres (77.95 inches)

Areas for improvement

Conversion not displayed if unit name contains uppercase characters:

• |reach=198 Centimetres → 198 Centim
• |reach=198 CM → 198 CM
• |reach=1.98 Metres → 1.98 Metres
• |reach=1.98 M → 1.98 M
• |reach=78 Inches → 78 Inches
• |reach=78 IN → 78 IN

Conversion not displayed if symbols are used for inches:

• |reach=78" → 78"
• |reach=78″ → 78″

Does not recognize symbols for inches in manually entered conversion (adds a second conversion):

• |reach=198cm (78") → 198 cm (78 in) (78")
• |reach=1.98m (78″) → 1.98 m (78 in) (78″)

Does not convert feet (ft) or yards (yd):

• |reach=6 feet → 6 feet
• |reach=6 ft → 6 ft
• |reach=2 yards → 2 yards
• |reach=2 yd → 2 yd

If {{convert}} template displays feet or yards, it is not abbreviated:

• |reach={{Convert|6|ft|6|in|cm|abbr=off}} → 6 feet 6 in (198 cm)
• |reach={{Convert|6|ft|6|in|m|2|abbr=off|lk=on}} → 6 feet 6 in (1.98 m)
• |reach={{Convert|2|yd|1.5|ft|cm|0|abbr=off}} → 2 yards 1.5 feet (229 cm)
• |reach={{Convert|2|yd|1.5|ft|m|2|abbr=off|lk=on}} → 2 yards 1.5 feet (2.29 m)

If {{convert}} displays feet or yards in conversion, a second conversion is displayed (only for unlinked unit names):

• |reach={{Convert|198|cm|ftin|abbr=off}} → 198 cm (6 feet 6 in)
• |reach={{Convert|1.98|m|ftin|abbr=off|lk=on}} → 1.98 m (6 feet 6 in)
• |reach={{Convert|229|cm|ydft|1|abbr=off}} → 229 cm (90 in) (2 yards 1.5 feet)
• |reach={{Convert|2.29|m|ydft|1|abbr=off|lk=on}} → 2.29 m (2 yards 1.5 feet)
