=== Basic usage === <pre> {{#invoke:check for unknown parameters|check |unknown=[[Category:Some tracking category]] |arg1|arg2|arg3|argN}} </pre> or to sort the entries in the tracking category by parameter with a preview error message <pre> {{#invoke:check for unknown parameters|check |unknown=[[Category:Some tracking category|_VALUE_]] |preview=unknown parameter "_VALUE_" |arg1|arg2|...|argN}} </pre> or for an explicit red error message <pre> {{#invoke:check for unknown parameters|check |unknown=<span class="error">Sorry, I don't recognize _VALUE_</span> |arg1|arg2|...|argN}} </pre> Here, <code>arg1</code>, <code>arg2</code>, ..., <code>argN</code>, are the known parameters. Unnamed (positional) parameters can be added too: <code><nowiki>|1|2|argname1|argname2|...</nowiki></code>. Any parameter which is used, but not on this list, will cause the module to return whatever is passed with the <code>unknown</code> parameter. The <code>_VALUE_</code> keyword, if used, will be changed to the name of the parameter. This is useful for either sorting the entries in a tracking category, or for provide more explicit information. By default, the module makes no distinction between a defined-but-blank parameter and a non-blank parameter. That is, both unlisted {{para|foo|x}} and {{para|foo}} are reported. To only track non-blank parameters use {{para|ignoreblank|1}}. By default, the module ignores blank positional parameters. That is, an unlisted {{para|2}} is ignored. To ''include'' blank positional parameters in the tracking use {{para|showblankpositional|1}}.
