I have found Wikipedia to be a very useful tool and as a result was lead to help make it even better. I had been actively involved with SpamCop serving as one of the two admins of the SpamCop Wiki[1] and also as one of the five moderators of the SpamCop Fourms[2]
My current schedule no longer permits be to be active in Wikipedia, but I still believe in the value of Wikipedia and make use of it as a initial reference source.
How to link to a section of an article
Sometimes it is necessary to refer to a specific section of a page when linking, rather than to the whole page.
You can create a link to any subheading on any page in Wikipedia by including a #
character followed by the subheading at the end of a link. For example:
Wikipedia:Community Portal#Collaborations .
In all section links, be sure to use a piped link for readability, like this:
[[Wikipedia:Community Portal#Collaboration|Collaborations]]
which looks like this:
Collaborations
If a section title changes, rather than go red/inactive, the link will lead to the top of the linked page.
Note that redirects support sections links.
To add this auto-updating template to your user page, use
{{totd }}
