This Lua module is used on approximately 824,000 pages, or roughly 1% of all pages.
To avoid major disruption and server load, any changes should be tested in the module's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own module sandbox. The tested changes can be added to this page in a single edit. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them.

This module may be appended to a template to check for uses of deprecated parameters. The purpose is to locate deprecated parameters, display a message and place the page in a specific category noting that it is deprecated.

Note: due to the nature of deprecations, this module will often have no templates implementing it.

Usage

{{#invoke:check for deprecated parameters|check
|category=[[Category:<category_name>|_VALUE_]]
| old_param1 = new_param1 
| old_param2 = new_param2
| ....
| old_paramN = new_paramN
}}
