           Summary: linking to specific sections within preferences
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.14-svn
          Platform: All
               URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#wpDate2
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: User preferences

You can't link to specific sections within preferences. For example,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#wpDate2 ought to link to the
"Time zone" section of the "time and date" tab. It briefly goes to the right
place but then the page flicks back to the first tab. If you're trying to
explain to someone how to change something in their preferences, it's very
useful to be able to link them directly to the right place.

The correct tab can be linked to via
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Preferences#prefsection-4 but no sections
within a tab can be linked.
