Top category tabs WWI

I have recently found the suggestions link and now I’m going through them. I have found that most/all my entries for WWI are generating an error. The error is stating I’m using a top level category. Maybe someone look to see if I’ve done them correctly or not.

Looking at the example profiles It looks like you are using the Great War sticker template incorrectly. Looking at https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:The_Great_War the Branch should be only those listed under the Flags. Then you have to have a category under the |unit parameter that uses the Branch name, World War I as part of the category name. See the changes I did to the template on [[Greet-398|Thomas Isaac Mockford Greet]] for an example of how it should be done.
