Description Scot Wilcoxon 2005-07-10 06:55:02 UTC
In an old revision of [[en:Disneyland]]:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Disneyland&oldid=18228825 there is a
footnote link following the first word.  That link points to the current
Article, and not to the anchor further down in this revision.  Interestingly,
inside the TOC the last entry "Notes" does point down within this revision, and
the "reference-back-link" symbol near the start of Note 1 does point back up to
that footnote's anchor within this revision.  The downward-footnote was created
with Template:Ref and the matching reference-back-link created with Template:Note.
Comment 1 Brion Vibber 2005-07-10 07:00:58 UTC
That link uses a template which explicitly references the full article canonical current revision URL:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Ref&action=edit
