Now, THAT'S interesting!

So, for example, I'd do this:

[[Martin_Luther#Bib|Bibliography] in the TOC

and

<div id="bib"> ==Bibliography==</div>

and it's work?

Is it possible to use HTML <a name=""> and <a href="#"> type tags or something similar in a Wikipedia article?

Actually, you can see a similar feature in action on Sun's Javapedia:

(Die, CamelCase!)

Which majority doesn't want it ? Just try using Wiktionary for a moment and you'll see why having option of linking (cross-article) to such

is something that we have to implement.

I'm also FOR and I ask desperately this feature in Wikipedia for a while ! [[Foo#Bar|Text]] may be VERY nice to me. With for exemple ##Bar to create targets.

It work already. Look on fr: at [[Liste des articles d'astronomie]]. What is missing is how to set the anchor (a fake <div id=anchor> work but is painfull).
