Giving out the answer probably isn't the best idea, it would be better for the person taking the challenge to read the SASS reference page as it explains what a placeholder selector is.

Here:

%super_link { font-weight:bold; color:red; }

We use the % to define a placeholder, just like when we use # to define an ID!

Thanks & happy coding :)
