::::::::: Ideally, our ''[[template:monzo|<code>monzo</code> template]]'' should provide more options for arguments. The current usage could be defaulted to <code>literal</code>, future parameters should include the alternative <code>fraction</code> with an optional <code>subgroup</code> parameter. If a fraction is given, it should automatically calculate the exponents. If soubgroup is present, it should display as [[smonzo]]. In my opinion, the implementation can be done in a Lua-Module, hopefully this will be possible. --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 21:59, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
