You can name the pages in whatever manner you wish, you just won't get auto links. If you do [LanguageDevelpoment/DIP DIP] it works fine. If you want to use spaces you can either use {{Page and Spaces}} which is the entire page name, for renaming something you must use 2 _ [Page__and__Spaces link].

As for moving the page, the content must be move by hand, then the old page content can be replaced with:

#REDIRECT NewLocation

> LanguageDevel/DIPs/DIP1 (current version)
> LanguageDevel/DIPs/DIP1/Archive (previous versions)
> LanguageDevel/DIPs/DIP1/Archive/Revision1 (previous versions)
> LanguageDevel/DIPs/DIP1/Archive/Revision2 (previous versions)
> LanguageDevel/DIPs/DIP1/DiscussionLinks (links to discussions)

Please no. There is no reason to archive in that manner, the page edits already have versions. If you want to archive "final" changes, then use a single /Archive page which references as specific archived change.

My suggestion for DiscussionArchive is probably your DiscussionLinks, i.e. the links to newsgroup posts.

Hope that helps.
