(This figure is unduly precise )
This template is used for specious precision in data. Such data is inappropriate because it gives a false indication of the state of knowledge of the subject. This typically occurs because a calculation was made without considering significant figures ; this is not uncommon when converting between systems of units, such as imperial to metric.
If 'section' is indicated, {{Undue precision|section}}, this template will display a banner. Otherwise it will create an in-line note.
