Mediawiki link within the page to a specific place, rather than a section

Question

1. Question If I code like the following, then I have a link within the page to a specific "section" ``` [[#SectionTitle|displayed text]] ``` But what if I want to have a link within the page to a place, I mean any place? Sometimes I might want to directly refer to a part of the page that isn't at the start of a section. 2. What I tried I tried something like this ``` [[#Foo|displayed text]] {{anchor|Foo}} ``` This seemed to ask me to make a page Template:Anchor So I copied the Template:Anchor page of wikipedia. But Template:Anchor again seemed to ask to make some new page, because Template:Anchor only says ``` {{#invoke:anchor|main}} ``` So my attempt didn't work.

Accepted Answer

Use the following to create the anchor: ```

optional text

``` which can be referenced as: ``` [[#NameOfAnchorHere| test]] ``` More information about linking in MediaWiki can be found here
