Description DaSch 2008-08-17 19:05:55 UTC
When there is a Property with multiple costum types with multiple Values the displaying in the factbox is a bit confusing

4example 
Dichte 	0,0899 g/cm³ (0,0899 g/l) (273 K (-0,15 °C, 31,73 °F, 491,4 °R))

maybe [] should be used for better readability
Comment 1 Markus Krötzsch 2008-12-05 18:46:42 UTC
Behaviour is now changes as follows: all outputs in values of multi-valued properties use short forms. For example, for values with custom units, this is the tooltip display. This looks not confusing anymore.

The only possible downside of this is that the Factbox will sometimes (directly after parsing and saving) show the version of the data as it is seen on the page. In particular, this means that the fcatbox shows the unit you used for input, even if it is not the standard unit. In all other contexts (Special:Browse, Factbox when not directly after saving/re-parsing, ...) the short version will use the standard unit as its basis. But I do not consider this to be a major problem, since the data will be ok in any case (and since the Factbox is not even displayed by default on many wikis).
