The prohibited characters are: <code>< > [ ] | { }</code>. The {{para|<param>-link}} parameter value should contain only the title of an article or a link to a section of an article. [[Module:Citation/CS1]] checks the {{para|<param>-link}} parameter values for wikimarkup and for a URI scheme (<code>http://</code>, <code>https://</code>, the protocol relative scheme <code>//</code>, etc.). This error can also be caused when there is a {{para|<param>-link}} value and the matching {{para|<param>}} parameter contains a wikilink.<!--formatting template such as {{tl|smallcaps}} or {{tl|IAST}}, which should not be used in CS1 or CS2 templates.--> To resolve this error, do one of the following: * Ensure that the {{para|<param>-link}} value is the full name of an article (without brackets) or a section of an article, and not a link to an external web site. * Make sure that there are no wikilinks in the matching {{para|<param>}} parameters. * If you want to link to a URL outside of MEpedia, move the link to {{para|url}} or a similar parameter, if one is available in the template you are using. <!--* Make sure that there are no illegal characters in the paired parameters. These templates or HTML entities can be used to replace illegal characters in the title-holding parameter: {| class="wikitable" style="margin-left: 6.4em" |+replacements for prohibited wikilink title characters ! < !! > !! [ !! ] !! {{pipe}} !! { !! } |- | &lt; || &gt; || &#91; || &#93; || &#124; || &#123; || &#125; |- |colspan="2"| ||colspan="2" style="text-align: center;" | [[Template:Bracket|<nowiki>{{bracket|text}}</nowiki>]] || [[Template:Pipe|<nowiki>{{pipe}}</nowiki>]] ||colspan="2" | |}--> Pages with this error are automatically placed in {{#ifeq: {{FULLPAGENAME}} | Category:CS1 errors: parameter link | Category:CS1 errors: parameter link | [[:Category:CS1 errors: parameter link]]}}.<ref group="lower-alpha" name="categories" />
