Hi Emma,
As I discuss in You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view., I think that the scribe felt the necessity of these explicit linking lines due to the fact that the lines are placed close to one another, and without them it is not easy for the reader to figure out which line is actually the beginning of the paragraph (which a given star refers to), because the last line of the preceding paragraph is full-length.
BTW, You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view. demonstrates still more curious way of linking.
As for the p and f, there are other paragraphs in the Recipe section without them (e.g. the 4th paragraph of f108v).
***
The folio numbers seem to be automatically parsed into hyperlinks to Jason Davies's site in our forum, so you need not wrap them in URL tags.
Also, please correct the thread title: 180 -> 108
