In combination with a breakpage request, either one of

   pmwiki.php?p=Group.Page&n=3
   pmwiki.php?n=Group.Page&p=3
   pmwiki.php?fn=Group.Page&p=3

works for me (where fn is full name or even find name)

But I think name (n) xxx page (p) k is slightly more natural
than page (p) xxx number (n) k

After much discussion a while ago, we ended up with $FullName for the
group-qualified name. So using fn makes sense to me. For this reason,
I'd give a for address a low score.
