[{$pagename}] are a form of an [XRI] resolution protocol can be used to resolve either an [i-name] or an [{$pagename}] to an [XRDS] document describing the target [resource].

[{$pagename}] is often used to solve the problem of how any [web] [resource] can have a persistent [Identifier] that never changes even when the web resource moves or changes its human-friendly name.
