Template:JPY
¥
This is a multifunction template. At its simplest, it adds the currency mark "¥", as recommended by MOS:CURRENCY for many situations. The template can also link to the Japanese yen article and can even calculate inflation. See warnings below.
Usage
Example:
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥123.45
Link
The parameter |link=yes
may be used to link ¥ to the article Japanese yen. This is turned off by default, but may be appropriate for the first occurrence of the term in an article.
Example:
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥123.45
Inflation calculation
Do not assume that using this template will mean that a calculated value is "current", "as of 2024", "as of 2023" or even necessarily "recent". Do not use {{CURRENTYEAR}} to refer to calculated value, instead {{Inflation-year|JP}} may be used. See also MOS:REALTIME. |
The template supports inflation calculation, by way of {{Inflation}}
. If the second parameter is used, to specify a year, and this year is within a certain range of available inflation data (specifically, if 1946 ≤ year
< 2019), the equivalent value represented in 2019 yen will be calculated in parentheses. However, this function should only be used in appropriate situations.
Examples:
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥100
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥100 (equivalent to ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥100 (equivalent to ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥100 (equivalent to ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥100 (equivalent to ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥100
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥100
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥100
Additional parameter |about=yes
will cause the template to calculate to the nearest yen (instead of the nearest sen or rin), and prefix the calculated value with "about". The rounding can be fine-tuned further by using |round=integer
. These parameters may be combined.
Examples:
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥10 (equivalent to ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥10 (equivalent to ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥10 (equivalent to about ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥1,000 (equivalent to ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥1,000 (equivalent to ¥NaN in 2019)
- REDIRECT Template:Template link code → ¥1,000 (equivalent to about ¥NaN in 2019)
