The template <nowiki>{{</nowiki>[[{{ns:Template}}:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|{{lc:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}]]<nowiki>}}</nowiki> inserts one or more [[wpen:Fragment identifier|HTML fragment identifiers]] (anchor names) in a page. Those locations can then be linked to using <code><nowiki>[[#Location|…]]</nowiki></code> syntax. {{#ifeq:{{BASEPAGENAME}}|Visible anchor|&nbsp;Unlike {{tl|Anchor}}, the first parameter will be visible text on the page.|}} (Usually the first letter of the ''location'' is capitalised to reflect the common capitalisation used in section headers – see [[wpen:MOS:HEAD|MOS:HEAD]].)

=== Examples ===

1. <code style="color:darkgreen;"><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{lc:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}|Foo<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code> 
: could be linked to with <tt><nowiki>[[#Foo|…]]</nowiki></tt> from within the same article, 
: or it could be linked to with {{nowrap|<tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>''<small>Article name</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: 
:{{nowrap|1=<code style="color:dimgray;"><nowiki>==</nowiki><span>{{nbsp}}</span><code style="color:darkgreen;"><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{lc:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}<nowiki>|Foo}}</nowiki></code><span>{{nbsp}}</span>Section title <nowiki>==</nowiki></code>}} 
:Here, links via {{nowrap|1=<tt><nowiki>[[</nowiki>''Article name''#Foo<nowiki>]]</nowiki></tt>}} would remain valid even if the section were renamed. (Note that the anchor is placed ''before'' the section name; otherwise browsers may hide the section title from view.) However, as noted under [[#Limitations|Limitations]] below, it may be preferable to use direct HTML rather than the template within section titles: 
:{{nowrap|1=<code style="color:dimgray;"><nowiki>==</nowiki><span>{{nbsp}}</span><code style="color:darkgreen;"><nowiki><span id="Foo" /></nowiki></code><span>{{nbsp}}</span>Section title <nowiki>==</nowiki></code>}} 

3. The template can be used to create multiple anchors with a single call. For example, 
: {{nowrap|1=<code style="color:darkgreen;"><nowiki>{{</nowiki>{{lc:{{BASEPAGENAME}}}}<nowiki>|Foo|Bar|baz}}</nowiki></code>}} 
: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>.

* Anchor names that contain any character shown in the table on the right will not work as expected. However, any of these characters can be replaced with the "&amp;#" codes shown for them here. Or, the pipe symbol and equals sign can be worked around with {{tl|!}} and {{tl|{{=}}}}, respectively. Markup code such as {{tag|sup|o}} and {{tag|sub|o}} (superscript and subscript) cannot be used. Most other characters, including white space and punctuation, are not a problem.
* Anchor names should be unique on a page, and should not duplicate any heading titles. Duplicate anchors will not work as expected since the <code><nowiki>#location</nowiki></code> links go to the first anchor with that name. Duplicate anchors result in invalid HTML; you can check for duplicate anchors by running the page through the [[wpen:W3C Markup Validation Service|W3C Markup Validation Service]].
* If the template is added to a section title then the code will appear in the edit summary window when that section is edited, as in {{nowrap|1="<code><nowiki>/* {{anchor|Issues}}Limitations */ New issue</nowiki></code>"}}. Also, when the section is saved, browsers may not return to the section. Consider using <code><nowiki><span id="..." /></nowiki></code> directly, rather than using the anchor template, when in a section title. 
* Anchor links are case sensitive in some browsers, so treat all anchor links as case sensitive.

===Use in tables===
Anchors may be used within tables, subject to certain restrictions. The {{tlx|anchor}} template may be used in the caption and cells of a table, but not those portions of a table that are outside the caption and cells. It is used on the table's caption thus:<syntaxhighlight lang=text>|+ {{anchor|FooX}} A table caption</syntaxhighlight> and the following forms of cell are valid:<syntaxhighlight  lang=text>!{{anchor|Foo1}} A header cell
!style="background:white;" |{{anchor|Foo2}} A header cell with styling
|{{anchor|Foo3}} A data cell
|rowspan=2 |{{anchor|Foo4}} A data cell spanning two rows</syntaxhighlight> You need to ensure that the {{tlx|anchor}} is not in that portion of the markup intended for the classes, styles etc. Thus, {{tlx|anchor}} cannot be placed anywhere on lines that begin with <code><nowiki>{|</nowiki></code> (start of table) or <code><nowiki>|-</nowiki></code> (new row), and the following forms of cell are not valid:<syntaxhighlight  lang=text>!{{anchor|Foo1}} |A header cell
!style="background:white;" {{anchor|Foo2}} |A header cell with styling
|{{anchor|Foo3}} |A data cell
|rowspan=2 {{anchor|Foo4}} |A data cell spanning two rows</syntaxhighlight> If it is necessary for an anchor to be in any of these positions, a different technique is used - the <code>id=</code> attribute. This is placed in that portion of the markup where the classes, styles etc. may be used, as follows:<syntaxhighlight  lang=text>{| id=FooX class=wikitable
|- id=FooY
!id=Foo1 |A header cell
!style="background:white;" id=Foo2 |A header cell with styling
|id=Foo3 |A data cell
|rowspan=2 id=Foo4 |A data cell spanning two rows</syntaxhighlight> The <code>id=</code> attribute may appear before, between or after any other attributes that may be present, but only one <code>id=</code> attribute may be used in each of these areas.
