{{Special:Prefixindex|prefix=User:Example/|hideredirects=1|stripprefix=1}}
If you want use in your wiki a sorted lists of subpages, or get counts of it for using in templates, you may try extension Extension:SubPageList.

This template generate i.e. content of page The Birch-Bark Roll 1906 (kniha). It is solution without dependency on the Lua modules.
