It would be better to recreate the references in doc/guides/nics/index.rst rather than just delete them.
I don't think there is any need to renumber them.
The references are global across documents and must be unique.

These references were in the original 1.7 MSWord docs.
When reading a document it enabled the reader to jump to another section and jump back, they worked in the HTML docs too.
I think they should be retained.
