Anchor
Resolved
Hi waddie96. I'm not following this edit you made to ICD-11. Can you explain? Cheers, Manifestation (talk) 10:39, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- It’s an anchor for this {{See also}} link. In case someone changes the section title. waddie96 ★ (talk) 10:42, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- The section title is correct. Why would anyone change it? The name of the anchor tag you added, "Personality disorder", is the same as the name of the section header,
====Personality disorder====. So this is currently redundant. Cheers, Manifestation (talk) 15:33, 23 March 2024 (UTC)- What you say makes total sense and is logical, yes. But it could be made plural like in many other articles. Hence my changing it. To me there’s no evidence of a real problem here, so be bold and remove it if you feel so inclined. waddie96 ★ (talk) 17:44, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- The title of the official ICD-11 category is "Personality disorder", singular. See here. Yes, someone could someday change it to the plural, or tweak the title some other way. But having an anchor tag underneath every header ever made on Wikipedia feels a bit excessive.
- You know what would be cool? To have a broken section-link be colored orange, instead of blue or red. The software has internal lists of all pages, I assume? So how about more internal lists with all sections?
- Then again, Wikipedia has no less than three bots checking section links: FrescoBot (BRFA), Dexbot (BRFA), and Cewbot (BRFA). And of course we have GreenC bot and InternetArchiveBot. Seriously, Wikipedia ought not to have any link rot. At all. - Manifestation (talk) 22:48, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
- I would not be fore:
[…] having an anchor tag underneath every header ever made on Wikipedia feels a bit excessive.
, I gave my reason why I put it there, you gave a reason not to, and I support it. - This idea sounds great:

- Aside: But I feel most may feel then disambigs should be purple, portals and non-EN-wiki pages other colours, so it goes on. And will probably hit you with WP:AINTBROKE. We are speaking here to come to consensus, let it not be known it is a Wiki-bicker that us wiki editors are so known for. Also, the colourblind may jump in and accessibility issues etc. and instructional creep or clutter creep.
- Thanks for your info in the last paragraph. I have reverted erroneous and redundant {{anchor}} placement here.
- Thanks for the discussion, I believe it has reached consensus. waddie96 ★ (talk) 19:27, 24 March 2024 (UTC)
Implemented. Can I close this discussion and move it to Talk:ICD-11 where I think it is better suited. waddie96 ★ (talk) 19:36, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

The Signpost: 29 March 2024

- Recent research: "Newcomer Homepage" feature mostly fails to boost new editors
- Traffic report: He rules over everything, on the land called planet Dune
- Humour: Letters from the editors

Administrators' newsletter – April 2024
News and updates for administrators from the past month (March 2024).
Administrator changes
Guideline and policy news
- An RfC is open to convert all current and future community discretionary sanctions to (community designated) contentious topics procedure.
Technical news
- The Toolforge Grid Engine services have been shut down after the final migration process from Grid Engine to Kubernetes. (T313405)
Arbitration
- An arbitration case has been opened to look into "the intersection of managing conflict of interest editing with the harassment (outing) policy".
Miscellaneous
- Editors are invited to sign up for The Core Contest, an initiative running from April 15 to May 31, which aims to improve vital and other core articles on Wikipedia.
First step towards the goal
This:
[[User talk:{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}]]
will produce a link to the editor's talk page. I'm not sure how to put that into a template without it subst:ing straight into the template (and thus hard-coding a link to your own talk page in the template), but I believe there is a method for doing so. Someone at Wikipedia:Village pump (technical) will know how to do this.
