This module is rated as ready for general use. It has reached a mature state, is considered relatively stable and bug-free, and may be used wherever appropriate. It can be mentioned on help pages and other Wikipedia resources as an option for new users. To minimise server load and avoid disruptive output, improvements should be developed through sandbox testing rather than repeated trial-and-error editing.
This module creates links to sections, nicely formatted with the "§" symbol instead of the default "#".
Usage
From wikitext
From wikitext, this module should be used via the template {{section link }}. Please see the template page for documentation.
From Lua
First, load the module:
localmSectionLink=require('Module:Section link')
You can then make section links via the _main function.
mSectionLink._main(page,sections,options,title)
Parameters:
- page - the page name to link to. Defaults to the full page name of title, or the current title if that is not specified.
- sections - an array of section names to link to, or a string to link to just one section name.
- options - a table of options. Accepts the following fields:
- nopage - set this to true to avoid displaying the base page name in links.
- title - a default mw.title object to use instead of the current title. Intended for testing purposes.
All parameters are optional.
