This is the "Verb" form. To create a page with this form, enter the page name below; if a page with that name already exists, you will be sent to a form to edit that page.

When creating the page name, the correct syntax is to utilize the Verb: namespace followed by the verb name in all caps, with no spaces before or after the colon, ex. Verb:MILK.
