Subpages introduce some hierarchical organization into wiki pages, with levels of the hierarchy separated by slashes (/).
==Creating subpages==
Create a subpage by using a slash.
<pre>
[[User:Username/Subpage]]
</pre>
It's not possible to use forward slashes in the title of a page because MediaWiki will create a subpage.
Subpages may have more child subpages; this scheme can be continued arbitrarily far.
<pre>
*Help:Subpages - "page" in the namespace help<br>
*Help:Subpages/subpage - child page<br>
*Help:Subpages/subpage/sub-subpage - grandchild page<br>
*Help:Subpages/subpage/sub-subpage/sub-sub-subpage - great grandchild page<br>
*Help:Subpages/subpage/sub-subpage/sub-sub-subpage/sub-sub-sub-subpage - great great grandchild page
</pre>
{{Box_Hinweis|Hinweis Text =MediaWiki interprets slashes as a new page, so a slash should not be used in article names}}
Typical applications are:
*to create "archives" of old discussions under a talk page
*to create "scratchpad" editing spaces under a user page
*to create "other language versions" of a document in multilingual wikis
