Thread:Project:Support desk/Help about formatnum magic word/reply (3)

Hello, when the  parameter is not set, indeed, an unformatted number is expected. But, according to the documentation, "The  parameter [...] should be used only to deformat numbers [...] formatted exactly as formatnum formats them with the wiki's locale".
