Documentation

This template creates an "anchor" at the current location that can serve as a target for incoming links, or for links within the same page (like section headings do). Note that the name of the anchor is shown to the viewer; if you don't want that, use an empty final positional parameter, as shown in the examples below.

Usage

• {{anchor|anchor name}}
• {{anchor|anchor name|alternate displayed text}}
• {{anchor|anchor name|}}

Examples

• {{anchor|Anchor}} ⇒ Anchor
• {{anchor|Anchors|Aweigh}} ⇒ Aweigh
• {{anchor|Hidden|}} ⇒

These anchors can be targeted by links like [[Page Name#Anchor]], [[Page Name#Anchors]], and [[Page Name#Hidden]], respectively (or, if linking within the same page, just [[#Anchor]], etc.).

Aliases
