We could use a more comprehensive (advanced) cheatsheet.  For example, if I have:
`# heading one`
`## heading one point one`
`# heading two`
and I want an anchor on "heading two", to form a URL that jumps straight to heading two, how do I do that?  The obvious conventional approach would be to use something like:
`https://steemit.com/steemit/@mynick/my-article#heading-two`
but it does not work.

I know it must be possible, because @ash just filed a [bug report](https://steemit.com/steemit-bug/@ash/steemit-bug-report-comment-anchors) which demonstrates the existence of these undocumented anchors.

(I would reply to that bug report, but sadly the "reply" option is gone on articles that are even slightly old)

I think for that kind of advanced formatting and features you need to combine html/css with Markdown.  So technically it isn't markdown.  

It would definitely be useful to have an official document that lists all the markdown, html and css styling options and how to use them.  

I suspect it will happen eventually but it is probably not a priority.  

Also from what I understand that bug report is referring to linking to a particular comment which is different from what you want.
