Do we have the "[See below]" link to sections of the same article?

On Wikipedia, you occasionally see a "See below" link to a section of the same article. This often comes when a larger topic is briefly mentioned to direct the reader to the section where it's explained in more detail. Like this: "^{[See below]}". Does RationalWiki have this feature? I would like to use it if it does. --LiamM32 (talk) 00:49, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

You can use {{sl}} to create a section link at least. Plutocow (talk) 01:01, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

I found a way to do it. I did `[[#section|<sup>[See below]</sup>]]`, with "section" being the name of the section to link to. I don't know if this will be accepted as part of RationalWiki's writing style. --LiamM32 (talk) 01:22, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

How to collapse stuff

I have a BIG wall of text that is relevant to a question I have so I want to collapse it so it doesn't overwhelm the main page but I can't seem to find a way to do it. I tried copying what I saw in other topics but it doesn't come out right in the preview. Please help.47.5.66.54 (talk) 04:46, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi there! If you look at Template:Collapse it gives you a general idea. You start with:

{{Collapse|Title, and stuff}}

Write your stuff, and end it with:

{{Collapse end}}

So it looks like this:

If you are unsure, just keep hitting "Show preview" and mess around with it. Hope that helps! - Rairyu75 (Talk) 05:02, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Question about Metamodernism

Hello, RationalWiki editors, Do you think that Metamodernism would be a suitable article for me to create. I attempted to create an article, but apparently it was not ready for primetime. Could you tell me whether such an article would be viable if I expanded it? 2601:647:6880:C97B:BCB8:895F:7403:1B3C (talk) 04:34, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

You can give it a go. I restored the page and moved it to Draft:Metamodernism for now, so you can edit it there. Articles just need to be more fleshed out before being added as "real" articles. --ApooftGnegiol (talk) 19:44, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Manual Archiving

Haven't archived manually yet in my time here. So how do I do it? TheEternalOutsider (talk) 03:26, 1 October 2024 (UTC)

Problem with my account.

I'd love to join the chat over at the saloon, but it seems it has been locked to "auto-confirmed accounts". I'm not sure how to have my account confirmed so I can post. I am a real-person™ and not a bot. LGMR (talk) 18:25, 6 November 2024 (UTC)
