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)

- You can try using the fullwidth forms
- example 2/21 example 2/21 "/" ff0f
- 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. ǝsʞpɐןǝ (message wall) 15:04, 29/03/2012
