Hey, Sheppy - Should we make a practice of stripping anchor links from
historical/outdated/archived documentation? On a few occasions I've had
links drop me into the middle of a document, skipping over the big red
warning at the top saying "this is old, don't do any of this". I might be
alone in this, but I suspect I'm not the only person who's lost time because
of it.
Or make the warning a fixed-position item, so it's on-screen
regardless of where on the page you are.
+1 I've been bitten by this more than once.
I think that archiving the page is a good solution, though.
Archived content has a different background color, and a striped
border around all of the article content, so it's not easy to
miss.
