--- Comment #10 from John Broughton <[email protected]> --- The VE software has changed (at least a week ago, maybe longer) for this issue. Now pressing [Return] does not remove the "#Whatever" text that the user typed, for the section link. So this bug is now primarily a display issue. (In reply to comment #7) > This isn't just a display problem, and it is NOT an enhancement - it's a real > defect because editors are unlikely to take the time - as I did - to figure > out > how to make section links work. > > Here's what happens now: The editor finds an article to link to (good UI; > much > better than the wikitext editor); then he/she starts typing the section link > (#whatever).
