Hello,

here is what I would like to accomplish:

somesite.net/<namespace>/<page_name[/subpage]>[?optional parameters]

Is there a way to achieve that?

You should do this with rewrite rules. MediaWiki expects a properly-formed MediaWiki title to come in on the 'title' GET/Post parameter. You will need to rewrite /namespace/page_name to ?title=namespace:page_name, and you will need to handle the case where there is no namespace.

Hi Evgeny! Take a look at the code of includes/SpecialPage.php, methods (from v1.15.1 I just use) static function executePath(&$title, $including = false ) { global $wgOut, $wgTitle, $wgRequest; wfProfileIn( __METHOD__ );

# FIXME: redirects broken due to this call
$bits = explode( '/', $title->getDBkey(), 2 );
$name = $bits[0];
if( !isset( $bits[1] ) ) { // bug 2087
	$par = NULL;
} else {
	$par = $bits[1];
}

...skip... // Execute special page $profName = 'Special:' . $page->getName(); wfProfileIn( $profName ); $page->execute( $par ); $page->execute( $par ); wfProfileOut( $profName ); wfProfileOut( __METHOD__ ); return true; } That $par is a parameter after slash, passed to execute() method. If you want to build your own special page, which may take it's parameter from "slash subpage" string, you have simply to extend SpecialPage class and implement your function execute(). If you want to use such parameter somewhere else, you probably have to use Title::getSubpageText(). Request query parameters (after '?') can be obtained by using $wgRequest instance of WebRequest object methods getInt('paramname'), getCheck('paramname'), getText('paramname').

That doesn't sound at all what the OP is trying to do.
