What specific section or headline is this issue about?

Entire page

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

When looking up anchor-scope (part of CSS Anchor Positioning), I found that the documentation is missing from MDN Web Docs. I also searched here on GitHub and could not find an existing or previous issue concerning documentation for this property.

What did you expect to see?

I was expecting the property to be documented on MDN Web Docs.

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?

While slightly newer than say anchor-name, support information for this property is available on CanIUse - https://caniuse.com/?search=anchor-scope

Documentation for the property can be found as part of the CSS Anchor Positioning specification here https://drafts.csswg.org/css-anchor-position-1/#anchor-scope

Do you have anything more you want to share?

I would be more than happy to assist and getting this one documented but, would need some support as it has been a while :) Thank you!

(It's in https://openwebdocs.github.io/web-docs-backlog/all/ btw, which means it's in BCD)

Thanks for bringing this up, @schalkneethling! This property wasn't supported at the time of the original documentation effort, so we left it out.

@rachelandrew, can you add this one to my official worklist, so it gets done in due course? The relevant ChromeStatus entry is https://chromestatus.com/feature/5094192052436992. Thanks!

Ooops, we forgot about this one. I will put it at the top of my list and try to get it done before the end of the year.
