I'm not sure what you mean by "original power" in the specs. I like "more performance" and "more general" -- it should make it easier to format the new specs. - Emt147 Burninate! 21:03, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

The 'original' won't be used very often, one reason why I chose to just use a piped parametre rather than a {{qif}} statement. It is used when the original measurement of engine power was made in some other unit than hp/kW/lbf/kN, which is mainly Russian jets and rockets (originally measured in kgf), and German piston engines (originally measured in PS). To insert it, specify
|power original=<ref>Originally measured as 7,500 [[kilogram-force|kgf]].</ref>

Gotcha. I'll write better instructions for Airtemp. - Emt147 Burninate! 21:12, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

I made a couple of small tweaks to the template to make the code a bit easier to read and to eliminate an extra space (it was making J79 turbojet , 10,000 lbf, the upretty part of the code is needed to avoid that extra space in front of the comma). - Emt147 Burninate! 22:32, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

Cite.php shouldn't be used in this template for what I hope are pretty clear reasons. It's not going to make sense (or be possible to have separate sections) if you've got actual citations in the article. Please use the old style ref/note system. ericg 12:54, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
