The template {{anchor}} inserts one [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HTML_element#Anchor HTML anchors] in a page. The location can then be linked to using [[#link|...]] syntax.

===Examples===

This template is used to create a single tag or anchor.
−
1. <code style="color:green;"><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{lc:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}|foo<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>
+
<nowiki>{{Anchor|id|Text to display}}</nowiki>

: could be linked to with <tt><nowiki>[[#foo|...]]</nowiki></tt> from within the same article,

: or it could be linked to with <tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>''<small>articlename</small>''#foo|...<nowiki>]]</nowiki></tt> from other articles and from redirects.

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

==Usage==
−
:<code style="color:gray;"><nowiki>==</nowiki> <code style="color:green;"><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{lc:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}|foo<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> Section title <nowiki>==</nowiki></code>
+
<nowiki>{{Anchor|parameter1|parameter2}}</nowiki>
−
:Here, links via <tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>''articlename''#foo<nowiki>]]</nowiki></tt> 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,
+
* '''parameter1''' &mdash; ''required''
−
: <code style="color:green;"><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{lc:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}|foo|bar|baz<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>
+
*: This indicates the name of the HTML anchor
−
:will create three anchors that can then be linked to with <tt><nowiki>[[#foo]]</nowiki></tt>, <tt><nowiki>[[#bar]]</nowiki></tt> and <tt><nowiki>[[#baz]]</nowiki></tt>.
+
 
−
:Specifying more than 10 anchors will cause an error message to be displayed.{{#ifeq:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|Visible anchor|<br />
+
* '''parameter2''' &mdash; ''optional''
−
<br />
+
*: This creates text to display at the location of the template
−
4. If the text to be displayed must differ from the anchor (e.g. because it contains brackets for linking), the <code style="color:green;">text</code> parameter can be used:
+
 
−
: <code style="color:green;"><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{lc:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}<nowiki>|foo|text=[[foo]]}}</nowiki></code>
+
In order to access this link anchor, use <nowiki>[[</nowiki>[[{{FULLPAGENAME}}#{{{1|parameter1}}}|examplepagename#parameter1]]<nowiki>]]</nowiki>
−
: this will result in a link that constitutes an anchor of its own|}}
