Link to an arbitrary spot in a multimarkdown file

Question

I'm trying to make the following work:

Here is my markdown text I would like to link to. [link]

Then I write something else.

Then I say [see above](link)

This does not work and I cannot find a way to link to some arbitrary text.

Note: This is not a duplicate of 6695493 as that is a conversation about headers.

This is not a duplicate of any answer that talks about linking to headers.

Answer 1

It looks like the answer is, "No you cannot do this with pure markdown"

You can put some HTML into your file to create a link and then link to that.
