I'm trying to create a page for Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. Unfortunately, trying to do put the name directly in the =~ brackets results in this:

2 Days

Is this possible?

Forward slashes are a namespace separator in pmwiki. Escaping them does not work either, as far as I can tell. This might be something that can be fixed in the ptitle markup, but those are likely to go away soon anyway.

Call the page "Three Five Eight Over Two Days" or something.

I could try, but I doubt anyone would know to link it that way. 8-(

Before he disappeared, Fast Eddie was working on a new punctuator thing that would allow slashes. Basically, the url would be the plain text version, but there would be an editable field to specify how the title should be capitalized and punctuated, and replace numbers with numerals as appropriate. So the url would say "One Hundred Bullets" but it would display "100 Bullets" on the page, and so would inbound wicks.

Definitely looking forward to that. ptitles are probably the most frustrating part of wiki editing to me (that and the rather primitive history/diff system).
The system doesn't know you right now, so no post button for you.
You need to Get Known to get one of those.
