+# Creating an anchor in Markdown
+
+Is it a native Markdown "tag" for creating an anchor? Unfortunately,
+I haven't any information about it at
+[Markdown syntax](http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax) page.
+
+Of course, I know that I can use HTML tag to do it,
+for example <a name="foo" />, but I don't want to mix Markdown
+and HTML code if it's not necessary.
+
+BTW, ikiwiki doesn't displays the #foo anchor in the example
+("To link to an anchor inside a page...") at [[WikiLink]] page...
+
+--[[Paweł|ptecza]]

+
+Considering a hierarchy like `foo/bar/bar`, I had the need to link from the
+`foo/bar/bar` page to the `foo/bar` one. It would have been convenient to
+simply write [[wikilink]]s like `\[[../bar]]` (or even just `\[[..]]`?), but
+this doesn't work, so I had to resort to using `\[[foo/bar]]` instead.
