The article ArticleName links here. --> so that if another user edits the title of that section, they can fix the incoming links (or, in cases where a section has a large number of incoming links, use {} on the anchor page). To link to a section within the same article, write: [[#Promotion to rook or bishop|§ promotion to a rook or bishop]].
