If your wiki is currently using a convert template, the new template should be copied to Template:Convert/sandbox. When satisfied that the sandbox convert template is performing correctly, it can be used to replace Template:Convert.
Other pages are needed, but the above is all that is required in order to have a working convert template.
Please do not translate text until you have read the translate page.
