Category:CS1 errors: param-access
- This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set.
- These categories are used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience.
- These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or subcategories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).
- Typically, tracking categories are automatically populated by templates invoked in pages or by the MediaWiki software (see Special:TrackingCategories for an overview of the latter).
This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

This is a tracking category for CS1/2 citations with the error:
|<param>-access= requires |<param>=
This error is reported when an access level has been specified for some external link, but the corresponding required parameter is missing or empty. The parameter can be one of
| Specifier | Required parameter |
|---|---|
|article-url-access= | |article-url= |
|bibcode-access= | |bibcode= |
|chapter-url-access= | |chapter-url= |
|contribution-url-access= | |contribution-url= |
|doi-access= | |doi= |
|entry-url-access= | |entry-url= |
|hdl-access= | |hdl= |
|jstor-access= | |jstor= |
|map-url-access= | |map-url= |
|ol-access= | |ol= |
|osti-access= | |osti= |
|section-url-access= | |section-url= |
|s2cid-access= | |s2cid= |
|url-access= | |url= |
To resolve this error, either provide a value for the parameter, or remove the access level specification.
Pages with this error are automatically placed in Category:CS1 errors: param-access.[a]
By default, Citation Style 1 and Citation Style 2 error messages are visible to all readers and maintenance category messages are hidden from all readers.
To display maintenance messages, include the following text in your common CSS page or your specific skin's CSS page (common.css and skin.css respectively):
.mw-parser-output span.cs1-maint {display: inline;} /* display Citation Style 1 maintenance messages */
To display hidden-by-default error messages:
.mw-parser-output span.cs1-hidden-error {display: inline;} /* display hidden Citation Style 1 error messages */
Even with this CSS installed, older pages in Wikipedia's cache may not have been updated to show these error messages even though the page is listed in one of the tracking categories. A null edit will resolve that issue.
To hide normally-displayed error messages:
.mw-parser-output span.cs1-visible-error {display: none;} /* hide Citation Style 1 error messages */
You can personalize the display of these messages (such as changing the color), but you will need to ask someone who knows CSS or at WP:Simple talk if you do not understand how.
