Wondering what best practice might be. I have a bunch of notes in the text that say (see page xx).
As I see it I’ve got a few choices:
- Remove them completely
- Leave them as is.
- Make them active links that take the reader there. The problem with this option is that there is no way to get the reader back to where they started from — which is impossible to code in this instance.
- Change them to a reference to the nearest subhead eg (see “Gaining the Vote in North America”) with no link
Thoughts?

Hiya. This is a good question. Where possible, can you migrate those references to “See Chapter XX” Or “see section XX” in Chapter XX? That makes the link a little more meaningful. The question of backlinks is a thorny one and, in this case, I think you have to trust your reader to bookmark their page.
I hope that helps.

Ya, that’s what I figured. Thanks Laura.
