Module documentation

This module helps you find problematic usages of a template's parameters. Compared to Module:Check for unknown parameters, you do not need to create long lists of parameters which should be categorised; it will automatically read them from the template's TemplateData. This means you don't need to define the parameter configuration in multiple places, which will inevitably lead to it being out of sync.
