Help talk:Argument declaration in templates

Further explanation requested
This looks like a useful piece of functionality but it's a bit opaque to this newbie. In what context are these arguments/parameters valid? And how, where, and when would you use them?

Does this mean that for each page that uses this special template block, the template can automatically add and set a SMW attribute from each parameter referenced by the template? I tried to use it in this way, but once I have, I can't query the parameter in the usual ways (#show and #ask) from other pages, so I don't think it's working.
