Enabling subpages with $wgNamespacesWithSubpages means two things: a) a navigational subtitle appears on pages titled A/B where page A exists; b) relative .. and / work in links and transclusion. Other "features" of / like #titleparts and "linguistic" meaning are not affected. https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgNamespacesWithSubpages https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Subpages https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Link#Subpage_feature Filing this bug for the untracked proposal by MZMcBride in http://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-l/2014-June/077267.html (see for details): ---- The more I look at this, the more I wonder why not instead invert the array: --- $wgNamespacesWithoutSubpages = array( NS_FILE => true, NS_CATEGORY => true ); --- ---- There is also an outstanding question by Tyler in https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/140765 which is best addressed here: > What wikis are using this [slashes in titles] on namespaces that do not have > sub-pages *and* would cause problems if sub-pages were enabled?
