This subpage provides documentation for Template:Anchor.

The template {{anchor}} inserts one or more HTML anchors in a page. Those locations can then be linked to using [[#link|...]] syntax.

Usage

1. {{anchor|foo}}

could be linked to with [[#foo|...]] from within the same article,
or it could be linked to with [[articlename#foo|...]] from other articles and from redirects.

2. Anchors can be more suitable for inter-article linking than section titles are. For example,

== {{anchor|foo}} Section title ==
Here, links via [[articlename#foo]] would remain valid even if the section were renamed. Consider using Template:Tlsp beneath the section title to generate an HTML comment alerting other editors to the purpose of anchors used in this manner.
The following is an example of what not to do:
== Section title {{anchor|bar}} ==
Here, the link [[articlename#bar]] would take the user to the section, but undesirably hide the section title from view.

3. The template can be used to create up to ten anchors with a single call. For example,

{{anchor|foo|bar|baz}}
will create three anchors that can then be linked to with [[#foo]], [[#bar]] and [[#baz]].
Specifying more than 10 anchors will cause an error message to be displayed.
