 "##,
 
+E0210: r##"
+This error indicates a violation of one of Rust's orphan rules for trait
+implementations. The rule concerns the use of type parameters in an
+implementation of a foreign trait (a trait defined in another crate), and
+states that type parameters must be "covered" by a local type. To understand
+what this means, it is perhaps easiest to consider a few examples.
+
+If `ForeignTrait` is a trait defined in some external crate `foo`, then the
+following trait `impl` is an error:
+
+```
+extern crate foo;
+use foo::ForeignTrait;
+
+impl<T> ForeignTrait for T { ... } // error
+```
+
+To work around this, it can be covered with a local type, `MyType`:
+
+```
+struct MyType<T>(T);
+impl<T> ForeignTrait for MyType<T> { ... } // Ok
+```
+
+For another example of an error, suppose there's another trait defined in `foo`
+named `ForeignTrait2` that takes two type parameters. Then this `impl` results
+in the same rule violation:
+
+```
+struct MyType2;
+impl<T> ForeignTrait2<T, MyType<T>> for MyType2 { ... } // error
+```
+
+The reason for this is that there are two appearances of type parameter `T` in
+the `impl` header, both as parameters for `ForeignTrait2`. The first appearance
+is uncovered, and so runs afoul of the orphan rule.
+
+Consider one more example:
+
+```
+impl<T> ForeignTrait2<MyType<T>, T> for MyType2 { ... } // Ok
+```
+
+This only differs from the previous `impl` in that the parameters `T` and
+`MyType<T>` for `ForeignTrait2` have been swapped. This example does *not*
+violate the orphan rule; it is permitted.
+
+To see why that last example was allowed, you need to understand the general
+rule. Unfortunately this rule is a bit tricky to state. Consider an `impl`:
+
+```
+impl<P1, ..., Pm> ForeignTrait<T1, ..., Tn> for T0 { ... }
+```
+
+where `P1, ..., Pm` are the type parameters of the `impl` and `T0, ..., Tn`
+are types. One of the types `T0, ..., Tn` must be a local type (this is another
+orphan rule, see the explanation for E0117). Let `i` be the smallest integer
+such that `Ti` is a local type. Then no type parameter can appear in any of the
+`Tj` for `j < i`.
