Templat:Anchor
The template {{anchor}} inserts one or more HTML anchors in a page. Those locations can then be linked to using [[#link|...]] syntax.
Examples
1. {{anchor|foo}}
- could be linked to with [[#foo|...]] from within the same page,
- or it could be linked to with [[pagename#foo|...]] from other pages and from redirects.
2. Anchors can be more suitable for inter-page 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.
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.
Limitations
- Anchor names that contain # (hash), | (pipe), = (equal) will not work as expected. Most other characters, including white space and punctuation are not a problem.
- The template can create a maximum of 10 anchors. Specifying more than 10 anchors will result in an error message.
- Putting each anchor name on separate lines, for example
{{anchor|humpty
|dumpty}}- will probably not work as expected.
- Anchor names should be unique on a page, and should not duplicate any heading titles. Duplicate anchors won't work as expected since the #links go to the first anchor with that name. Duplicate anchors also result in invalid HTML, so you can check for duplicate anchors by consulting the W3C Markup Validation Service.
- If the template is added to a section title then the code will appear in the edit summary when that section is edited, as in "/* {{anchor|Issues}}Limitations */ New issue". This can be fixed by deleting the template code from the edit summary before the changes are saved. Kategori:Internal link templates#Anchor
