Hello, 


First of all, thanks a ton, the support till now has been amazing, truly 
appreciate it!

I had one more query, according to Link's Target 
<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/pandoc-types-1.22/docs/Text-Pandoc-Definition.html#t:Inline> here, 
I can put (text, text) as (URL, title),
what if i want to create an internal link to let's say a paragraph or 
figure.
How can i achieve that?

Thanks in advance!

I think that would depend on your output type. I am not sure that all
output formats support that capability, and the syntax of the link may
differ.

If you are outputting to HTML, you can use standard within-page anchor
links. '![Image caption](foo.jpg){#foo}' lets you link to '#foo' as
the URL. Wrapping a paragraph in '<span
class="paragraph-10">...</span>' lets you link to '#paragaph-10' to
jump to that specific paragraph. (This is something I actually do
fairly often on gwern.net - it works particularly well with the popups
because you can hover on the link, and inside the popup will appear a
view of the paragraph or image.)

To link to something with the identifier foo, just create
a regular link with URL #foo

In general we do treat #foo as an internal link to an anchor foo,
not just in HTML but in other output formats. (Can't guarantee
that it works in all, but that's the ambition.)
