Information for editors

If you encounter a warning stating that "The template does not use the parameter(s)" while editing a page, the error is generated by this module. The module detects all parameters used by a template and issues a warning when a template is called with an unexpected parameter. In many cases, the error might be generated by a typo in the parameter name (eg, "pge" instead of "page") and can simply be corrected by consulting the template's documentation.

If you're absolutely certain that a template should allow the parameter even though it's not going to actually use the parameter, you can override the automatic parameter detection by adding | plus a comma separated list of additional parameters that should be accepted to the {{#invoke:checkparams|warn}} or the {{#invoke:checkparams|error}} line at the top of the template.

For example, to allow parameters "3" and "comment" in the following template 

{{#invoke:checkparams|warn}}<!-- Validate template parameters
-->Written by {{{1}}} and {{{2}}} in {{{year}}}

change it to: 

{{#invoke:checkparams|warn|3,comment}}<!-- Validate template parameters
The parameters '3' and 'comment' are not used, but are explicitly allowed because ....
-->Written by {{{1}}} and {{{2}}} in {{{year}}}
