mapping translated page names

Hi,

I'd like to know if there is a way (without using ad redirect) to map a traslated page in a page with a translated name. To be more clear, let say I have the Materials page in English. I can translate it in Italian having the Materials/it page. But I'd like to have instead the "Materiali" page (because "Materiali" is the Italian translation of Materials.

I see that Main page is translated in Pagina principale, but I cannot find a way to plain translate the page name mapping it to the translated page.

Sorry, I don't understand what you mean by "map" and "have" here. The "map" is done by translating the page title in Special:Translate; after that you have a page whose display title is "Materiali".

If you mean that you would like the page to actually reside at the title Materiali, that's not possible because the translations should then be unique across all languages. If you mean that you want to link it, same problem, and you should use Special:MyLanguage anyway.
