When trying to edit the Noted University of Sheffield Alumni section of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_Sheffield , the edit section link took me to the wrong section. Perhaps this problem occurs for pages containing sections with similar names (the page also contains a Noted University of Sheffield Faculty section and I seem to remember experiencing this problem for another Wikipedia university page). Clicking on the link to edit the "see also" section allowed me to edit the Noted University of Sheffield Alumni section.
The problem seems to be caused by this line in the page: <h1 style="font: inherit; font-size: 100%; font-weight: bold; text-align: center; border: none; margin: 0; padding: 0; color: #6a6c76;">University of Sheffield</h1> After replacing h1 by font, the section editing works fine.
I can confirm that there is a long-standing issue with <h1>, <h2>, etc, and the section editing code; it seems that the code that chooses a section to edit makes different assumptions from the code that inserts the "[edit]" links. This is already covered by bug 966. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 966 ***
