Does there exist a recommended wiki syntax for representing that a page is hierarchically a "child" of another page?
I don't want to rename the pages
Currently I use this static, hierarchical index of wiki pages which are part of our user manual, http://github.com/jablko/manual/raw/master/manual.html
- to compile the pages into this PDF, http://ica-atom.org/manual.pdf
Now however, instead of the static index, I want to represent in each page's wiki markup, which pages are logically "children" of that page
Among the reasons for doing this is that, to build the PDF based on the static index, currently I recursively concatenate first the body of a page, followed by each of its children
Now I have a case where, instead of concatenating the children after the page body, the children need to be inserted at various positions in the page body
So I think I need to indicate these positions with some wiki syntax, and this will make the static index redundant
I thought "transclusion" was a candidate, because pages are recursively transcluded to build the PDF, http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Transclusion
In the wiki however, I don't actually want to display pages embedded in each other - instead I want links to child pages. This represents enough information about the hierarchical structure to build the PDF
My current best candidate is the <a href="..." rel="down"/> "link relation",

Is there a better syntax for representing, at a particular position in a page, that another page is a "child"?
