== Description ==

Needed is a specific link to a section of an article in AnthroWiki.
The '''Template Anchor''' offers this possibility without having to link to a heading. This allows ''speaking'' section names to be created where a heading is not appropriate or cannot be worded as succinctly as would be desirable for the link.

== Documentation ==
The <nowiki>{{anchor}}</nowiki> template expects a parameter after the |, the name of which can be freely chosen:
<pre>{{Anchor|bar}}</pre> creates an anchor in the article ''foo''. This can then be linked with <pre>[[foo#bar]]</pre>.

===Alternative names for headings===
If the anchor is to provide an alternative name for an existing heading, the best place to include the template is not before the heading, but on the same line:

<pre>
=={{Anker|Name1}}{{Anker|Name2}}{{Anker|Name3}}Überschrift==
</pre>

This way, when editing, the anchors will be visible even if only the section is edited.

===Wrong application===
The application within headings in the form.
<pre>
== {{Anchor|Bar}} Bar ==
</pre>
(i. i.e. Same text in both template and heading itself) is superfluous and should be avoided: The heading
<pre>
== Bar ==
</pre>
automatically generates an anchor with the id 'Bar'. When the template is applied, this id is assigned twice, which leads to invalid [[w:HTML]] and can cause inconsistencies in the navigation and [[w:Cascading Style Sheets|CSS]] formatting.

For the same reason, template embeddings with a value identical to an already existing heading are not allowed.

== Examples ==
In [[Alsfeld]], the chapter ''Buildings'' in which the town hall is mentioned should be linked.

1. insert the anchor building block in the heading of the buildings:
<pre>== Buildings {{Anchor|City Hall}} ===</pre>.

2. now you can link <pre>[[Alsfeld#Town Hall|Town Hall Alsfeld]]</pre>, it looks like this: [[Alsfeld#Townhall|Town Hall Alsfeld]]
