I noticed that the software (see how I avoid saying "my software" in this context? ;) sometimes creates subpages that are named wiki.phtml.
Trying to figure out the cause of that, I'd like anyone who accidentially created such a page tell me what *exactly* he/she was doing when this happened. Were there any other strange side effects? Did you do a preview? Create another new page? Got an edit conflict?
I created one today by trying to edit [[Stephen_Gilbert/Contributions]]. Several days ago I got into a perpetual edit conflict with myself, so I left it. Today, I went back to it, and came up at the edit page automatically. I was still in that edit conflict, so I hit the Random Page link in the header. That's when the software created [[Stephen_Gilbert/wiki.phtml]].
