{{tracking category}}

Populated by {{tlx|Ship}} and individual ship-prefix templates like {{tlx|HMS}} when errors in a template's parameters are detected.  These templates take the forms:
:<code><nowiki>{{ship|</nowiki>&lt;{{var|prefix}}>|&lt;{{var|name}}>|&lt;{{var|disambiguator}}>|&lt;{{var|format control}}>}}</code>
:<code><nowiki>{{HMS|</nowiki>&lt;{{var|name}}>|&lt;{{var|disambiguator}}>|&lt;{{var|format control}}>}}</code>

When errors are detected, the templates emit error messages in the forms:
:<span style="color:#d33">Error: <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:Ship|Ship]]}} &lt;{{var|message}}> (help)</span>
:<span style="color:#d33">Error: <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[Template:HMS|HMS]]}} &lt;{{var|message}}> (help)</span>
where the help link links to this page.

The messages are:
:<span style="color:#d33">missing prefix</span> – {{tld|ship}} only – this message is emitted when the <code>|&lt;{{var|prefix}}></code> positional parameter is present but empty AND <code>|&lt;{{var|format control}}></code> positional parameter is set to <code>5</code> or <code>6</code> OR when {{para|up|yes}}
:<span style="color:#d33">missing name</span> – these templates require the ship's name in the <code>|&lt;{{var|name}}></code> positional parameter
:<span style="color:#d33">missing disambiguator</span> – when the <code>|&lt;{{var|format control}}></code> positional parameter is <code>1</code>, <code>3</code>, or <code>5</code> the template requires a value in |&lt;{{var|disambiguator}}>
:<span style="color:#d33">invalid control parameter: &lt;{{var|detail}}></span> – this message emitted when the <code>|&lt;{{var|format control}}></code> positional parameter holds a value that is not <code>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>3</code>, <code>5</code>, or <code>6</code>; the invalid control parameter is specified in the error message
