'''Subpages''' are pages whose title contains one or more slashes ("/"). In general, every subpage includes a breadcrumb link at the top, allowing the reader to navigate to the parent page (and further if there are multiple levels of subpages). However, the subpage feature is disabled in the main namespace, mainly to prevent rational interval pages (e.g. [[3/2]]) from including a breadcrumb link to a nonexistent page. | |||
"Fake subpages" can nonetheless be used in the main namespace in certain circumstances, such as: | |||
* Splitting large sections; e.g. [[Color notation/Temperament names]] | |||
* Splitting large tables or lists; e.g. [[17edo/Music]] | |||
* Splitting personal approaches; e.g. [[22edo/Eliora's approach]] | |||
In "fake subpages", a link to the main page should be added manually, either in the page's first sentence or in a hatnote using [[Template:Main]]. | |||
