 | This is the template sandbox page for Template:Anchor comment (diff). |
Template documentation | This template should always be substituted (i.e., use {{subst:Anchor comment}}). |
Example
<!-- This Anchor tag serves to provide a permanent target for incoming section links. Please do not remove it from its position on this page. Please do not modify it, even if you modify the section title. It is always best to anchor an old section header that has been changed so that links to it won't be broken. See [[Template:Anchor]] for details. (This text: [[Template:Anchor comment]]) -->
Usage
Substitute this template immediately beneath the {{anchor|(old section title)}} to alert other editors to its purpose.
The reason to use this template underneath section anchors is twofold:
- To prevent editors from moving the anchor placement to a different position, and
- To prevent editors from changing the contents of the anchor tag if they change the name of the section, with the assumption that they must continue to match.
