I also mark new chapters with a row of ******** to indicate a new chapter.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Indicating Chapter Headings When Proofreading
Usually a book will mark the start of a chapter with a chapter name or a
line such as "Chapter 1".
Occasionally a book will indicate a new chapter by starting a paragraph
halfway down a page and have no title, or number. The intent of pages like
this as indicating new chapters is fairly easy to grasp visually. In our
digital versions with changed format these navigational clues are lost.
To overcome this we can use the same technique we use to indicate when a
graphic has been removed. In square brackets [ ] at the start of a age
like this write "New Chapter" or in sequence [Chapter 1], [Chapter 2],
etc.
