Description:
Hallo!

Section links in "Preview" generate links as
{{fullurl:{{NAMESPACE}}:{{PAGENAME}}|action=submit#section}} .

Personaly I can not see many benefits of such links. Original changes are not
"preserved" when clicking to such a link. It should be clear to everybody that a
section link is *not* the edit link.

I assume that it would not be inconsistent to render a section link 'foo' at
page 'bar' in "Preview" as [[bar#foo]].

Firefox/1.5.0.1

at the TOC I found
<li class='toclevel-2'><a href="#New_Proposal_-_Artist_of_the_Month">2.1 New Proposal - Artist of the
Month</a></li>
in the body I found
<a name="New_Proposal_-_Artist_of_the_Month"
id="New_Proposal_-_Artist_of_the_Month"></a>

This is very helpfull for "view" and "purge". At "action=submit"
they generate (for me)

I was asking if they should generate

I assume it would be more helpfull to generate links to rendered rections and
*not* "edit" links"
REOPENing the request.

It's an on-page link. It has no "edit" action in it.
Please stop reopening these things.
