Parameter value missing

does this template automatically add the to-unit units? in other words, if i "convert|100|mph|kts" will it put kts after the converted number?

also all i can get out of it is like seen on the convert page at the top where it just says "Parameter value missing" but i know they're there... see my experiment here...

Hmm. Looking at the template I nearly immediately spotted the problem. I had used named parameters instead of unnamed/numbered parameters (i.e. using {{{value}}} in the template, requiring the value to be written as value=72 when "calling" the template instead of just 72 as was intended).
With that fixed the issue should be limited to "just" units not yet implemented. :-P
