This category collects pages that use the formatnum
parser function with a non-numeric or incorrectly formatted value, e.g. {{formatnum:foo}}
or {{formatnum:12,345}}
.
Ways to fix or work around this error inside template code:
- If
formatnum
is being applied to a string that includes both a number and words, change it to wrap just the number. Example:{{formatnum:{{{var}}} dollars}}
→{{formatnum:{{{var}}}}} dollars
- Another way to work around invalid input is to remove commas from the input like this:
{{formatnum:{{replace|{{{var}}}|,|}}}}
. Note that input using commas as decimal separators, in contravention of MOS:DECIMAL, will cause formatnum to produce invalid values. To fix the problem, use a full stop (period) as a decimal separator. - A limited way to work around invalid input in templates is to use {{digits}}, e.g.
{{formatnum:{{digits|{{{votes}}}}}}}
. This works only for whole numbers and will produce incorrect results for input containing decimal points or other non-numeric characters.
Ways to fix this error in articles:
- When additional text or references exist in a template parameter that expects only numbers, find a way to move the additional text outside the template or into a different parameter. For example:
- Currency templates like {{CAD}} or {{US$}} take only numeric input. Use
{{US$|123}}{{nbsp}}million
instead of{{US$|123 million}}
- The
|population_total=
parameter in {{Infobox settlement}} should have only a number in it. Move any references to|population_footnotes=
, as in this edit.
- Currency templates like {{CAD}} or {{US$}} take only numeric input. Use
Other:
- When
formatnum
is given a negative number written with the proper U+2212 "minus sign" (instead of the commonly used hyphen-minus key that appears on most keyboards), e.g.{{formatnum:−9000000}}
, it assigns this error category; see T237467. A workaround for this incorrect usage was applied to {{US Census population}}, which shows population declines as negative numbers. You should use hyphen-minus withinformatnum
to avoid this error category and it will output the proper minus sign (see T10327).
