If you leave the first parameter blank, it assumes the link is to a section in the same article and only the section name is displayed (see [[BSL:Manual]] for many examples). No need to use this template unless you want to have a prettily-displayed raw section link; if you are linking to a section and providing your own link label like this – <nowiki>[[SomeArticle#Section|click here]]</nowiki> – there's no benefit in it.

+The first parameter is actually optional since you might want to link to a section on the same page. If you leave the first parameter blank, only the section name is displayed with a § before it (see [[BSL:Manual]] for many sample usages).
