Template:Formatnum

An language specific to the FormatNum extension. Uses a &thinsp; (thin space) as thousand separator and a decimal seperator depending on the language (see {{DS}}). It also places the number in a <span> with the CSS property white-space set to nowrap to avoid line breaks.

According to ISO 31-0 (and in German also DIN 1333, 5008) a space should be used as a thousand separator to avoid confusion with the decimal separator. This templates uses the Unicode 8201₁₀ (or 2009₁₆) which is a thin space.

To format a number without the <span>, for example in tool tips, use the following code: {{#formatnum:NUMBER|NUMBER OF DECIMAL PLACES|{{DS}}|t}}
