this does not work. title_object gets the object for the page that the template is used on, not for the template calling Module:Check for unknown parameters. Bother.

read the unparsed content of a template and create a list of all parameters used in that template page. may be useful to replace the manually curated lists of parameters given to Module:Check for unknown parameters.

to fetch the data, use: local data.known_params_t = mw.loadData ('Module:Sandbox/trappist the monk/template params/data')

]] local known_params_t = {};														-- associative table to hold each from any {{{ that we find local title;

local function param_names_get

local template_content;														-- unparsed template content goes here local title_object = mw.title.getCurrentTitle;							-- create a title object for the current title

title = title_object.prefixedText; if 10 == title_object.namespace then										-- must be template namespace template_content = title_object:getContent;							-- get the template's raw text else template_content = mw.title.new('Template:EB1911'):getContent or '';	-- for development --		return known_params_t;													-- not in template namespace, return an empty table; TODO: error message instead? end

for param in template_content:gmatch ('{{{([^|}]+)') do		known_params_t[param] = 1;												-- save it	end

return known_params_t; end
