subpages

Pages within pages

Subpages are pages nested within a larger page, creating a hierarchical structure.

On wikis and websites, a subpage typically has a URL that extends from its parent: The style guide lives at Manual/Style as a subpage of Manual.

The term implies organization—breaking complex content into manageable, linked sections rather than one sprawling page.
