message: Since the discussion there has turned to possibly modifying this template, I think editors here should take a look at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style#Instructions on the placement of "Anchor" templates. —DocWatson42 (talk) 05:06, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  Discussion notice: "Instructions on the placement of 'Anchor' templates" at MoS Talk 

message: As a V-2022 user, whenever I use the anchor template, the top header that features the title and the like that is used in V-22 obscures the portion of the article where the anchor is supposed to specifically link to. For example, on List of Generation Z slang, linking Asl (slang) with an anchor obscures the segment of the article dedicated to the term "Asl" on the article using V-22.

message: The information in the section Template:Anchor/doc#Rationale for substitution in the header appears to be outdated. An anchor below a section will no longer hide the section heading (at least on Chrome). Navigating to an anchor will also show a few lines above it. MClay1 (talk) 11:05, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

replies: text: template substitution is an ugly solution. defining a new anchor when there are existing ones quickly becomes a hack. there ought to be a more elegant solution. fgnievinski (talk) 05:09, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rationale for substitution in the header 

message: The doc says  Such an anchor does not always work correctly on mobile, because if the anchor is above a level 2 (or 1) heading, the previous section will be expanded instead of the one the anchor is supposed to point to. We should deprecate such usage, at least above level 2/1 headings. Try opening  on mobile for an example. Nickps (talk) 19:22, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
