What functionality is missing? What is unsatisfying with the current situation?
When I create a location or entity within a larger article like a city, its hard for players to find this without me making a new article for it. (example: I have a guild for jugglers in a city named the Golden Toss. i type info about this guild within a section of my city. without making a new article for that guild my players will have a hard time finding this.)How does this feature request address the current situation?
Add the ability to give a section of text its own tag(or similar feature) that lets you and your players search for that text. It would show up in the search bars recommendations (maybe as a subtext of the greater article its contained in). Then if you click that it will take you to the article and scroll down so that the text you tagged is at the top. (example: from the home page as a player i search The Golden Toss. It shows up in my search bar, and maybe has the parent shown as the city article its contained in, and i click on it. It then takes me to the city's article and scrolls down to the section with the golden toss.What are other uses for this feature request?
Can help consolidate the amount of articles you have to create in your world.Follow up
Responding to a comments: I understand that it will pull up the city in the search bar when you look up the guild name, but this gives you more control, makes things look cleaner, and creates something more solid for your players to use. In another example case i have an organization of pirates. on that page i have information about each captain. When someone searches for a captain it would be neat for me to be able to have tagged that captains name on the page, with an anchor like feature(ty tjtrewin), so that the players(and me) will see the captains name and it will take them right there. There will be no assumptions, there will be no searching around, and you cant run into a situation of the things name has been referenced or mentioned in many other articles making it hard to find it. Im not saying this is a dire need, but i do think it would be useful. Just something to add more organization tools for creators. (and for the comment of it wont help if they don't know the name they are looking for, this isn't attempting to solve that issue so im not sure why that's relevant.)

on 2022-06-29 02:08if I'm being honest this feature, it sounds like a lot of fun and I think I'd use it if it was introduced but it's also true that it there are other ways to do the same thing

on 2022-06-08 10:07I don't really see how that would really improve the situation. When someone searches for Golden Toss or either of those words, then the city article will already show up in the search results. Sure you still then have to scroll down, but you already know that golden toss was mentioned in that article. From there you can use article table of contents for quick navigation into the article. Your solution also wouldn't help if people try to find this and not remember the correct search term.
