Eh, drop the "ChildPage/". I don't know what I was thinking, and I
don't think I want to know.

You don't need to. One, the term with the same page title isn't
autolinked (e.g. PostgreSQL shouldn't link on a page named
HowTo/PostgreSQL), and two, because of the consecutive capitals, it
wouldn't be autolinked anyway.
