SectionName is the joint discussion section. It may be a category name, or any other unique name that reflects the nominations.

Note that where the SectionName includes the category prefix, it must specified:

• {{ subst:Cfl|Example|Category:Bishops}} — with category prefix
• {{ subst:Cfl|Example|Bishops and archbishops categories}} — without category
