How do you create a page title with the / (slash) character in the name without it becoming a sub page ? i.e. example 2/21 actualy creates the subpage /21 of example 2 or is the only alternative to use the form example 2-21 instead and create redirects from the subpage ? - 88.104.134.191 17:37, March 27, 2012 (UTC)


 * Why do you need pages with "/" in the name? Just curious. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 27 Mar 2012 4:51 PM Pacific

 * example 2＼21 example 2＼21 "＼" ff3c
 * example 2？21 example 2？21 "？" ff1f
 * example 2＝21 example 2＝21 "＝" ff1d
 * example 2＆21 example 2＆21 "＆" ff06
 * example 2～21 example 2～21 "～" ff5e

 * Thanks I'll try them - 88.104.134.191 11:53, March 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * I'm not too sure that's a good idea. It would make it impossible to search for the pages, and noone would be able to type their urls directly.


 * For keyword searches and Google it should be fine. Special:Search hardly works anyway, so it won't be a great loss until Wikia can get it to work consistently. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 29 Mar 2012 12:01 PM Pacific
