Hi TeX Experts,

By mistake we handled \ref{sec2} - cross link for unnumbered section. Kindly refer the last line in the below sample tex.

It prints Section 1 and also we missed to check this wrong number.

Is there any procedure in latex to catch this unnumbered with label usage.
Please advise.

\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
\section{Section 1 numbered}\label{sec1}
\section*{Section 1 unnumbered}\label{sec2}
This is test.
\begin{equation}\label{eq1}
x + y
\end{equation}
\newpage
Test 1. Test 2. Test 3. Test 4. Section \ref{sec2}.
\end{document}
