The template {{Subpage|name|title}}
creates a link to a subpage of the current page.
Subpages are regular wiki pages.
But their name is the same as their parent page with some additional material on the end, separated by a slash "/". For instance "Template:Link/Doc" is a subpage of "Template:Link".
You can create a link to a subpage with square brackets by starting it with a slash.
For instance, on a page called "Meetings" you might have:
* [[/2011-02-11]] * [[/2011-03-17]]
The links will appear with the slash in their name, which is somewhat distracting:
| You type... | You get... | 
|---|---|
 [[/2011-02-11]]  | /2011-02-11 | 
You can clean that up by providing an explicit link text:
| You type... | You get... | 
|---|---|
 [[/2011-02-11|2011-02-11]]  | 2011-02-11 | 
But that's repetitive and difficult to read with longer subpage names.
Instead you can use
| You type... | You get... | 
|---|---|
 {{subpage|2011-02-11}}    
 | 2011-02-11 | 
The link doesn't show with a slash.
Finally, if you want, you can give an explicit link text:
| You type... | You get... | 
|---|---|
 {{subpage|2011-02-11|Feb 11}}    
 | Feb 11 |
