I have integrated the subpages of [[Svalbard]] into the main article.
Every time I try to delete the subpages, I get a 404 error. But as long as I leave them there, people keep putting them back into the [[Svalbard]] article, ignoring the comments on the talk page.
This bug can be worked around. Manually edit the URL that gives you a 404 during deletion and replace the URL-encoded slashes (%2F, I believe) with ordinary slashes. So, for example, "http://www.wikipedia.com/blahblah?Svalbard%2Fsubpage?action=whatever" would become "http://www.wikipedia.com/blahblah?Svalbard/subpage?action=whatever".
