Usage
Single section
This template is used to generate a link to a certain section of a local wiki pag and render an appropriate section mark (§).
Instead of:
[[History of IBM#1969: Antitrust, the Unbundling of software and services|History of IBM § 1969: Antitrust, the Unbundling of software and services]]
...you can write:
{{section link|History of IBM|1969: Antitrust, the Unbundling of software and services}}...which is much shorter and does not require you to search for the section mark character.
Both generate:
Multiple sections
This template may generate consecutive links to several sections of the same page:
{{section link|History of IBM|1880s–1924: The origin of IBM|1969: Antitrust, the Unbundling of software and services|1993–present: IBM's near disaster and rebirth}}...will generate:
- History of IBM §§ 1880s–1924: The origin of IBM, 1969: Antitrust, the Unbundling of software and services, and 1993–present: IBM's near disaster and rebirth
Suppressing page name
Sometimes the page name needs not to appear, e.g. to avoid redundancy and wordiness. For the page on which the template is used, not specifying a page name creates a section link only. The following:
{{Section link||Suppressing page name}}
...is the equivalent of:
[[#Suppressing page name|§ Suppressing page name]]
...and renders as:
For other pages, |nopage=y can be used to suppress the page name.
Comparison of displayed results:
{{section link|WP:Manual of Style|Quotations}}– WP:Manual of Style § Quotations{{section link|WP:Manual of Style|Quotations|nopage=y}}– § Quotations{{section link|WP:Manual of Style|Quotations|Quotation marks|Commas}}– WP:Manual of Style §§ Quotations, Quotation marks, and Commas{{section link|WP:Manual of Style|Quotations|Quotation marks|Commas|nopage=y}}– §§ Quotations, Quotation marks, and Commas
