== Link structure for new sections with supplied section name? ==

I am trying to get the talk link in my signature to create a new section on my talk page - and I want the new section title to indicate the referring page so for instance:

<nowiki>[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/wiki.phtml?title=User_talk:Michael_Alaly&action=edit&section=new&</nowiki>'''<nowiki>sectionname={{PAGENAME}}</nowiki>'''<nowiki>]</nowiki>

Does the link structure allow for creating a new section with a given name? The section post/get variable is expecting a numeric and when I supply a section name it isn't handled well. I have been unable to find a list of get/post variables or link structure breakdown. Any help is appreciated, thanks.
