Orphan subpage or metadata page.

The former article might have existed at "Orphan subpage" the basepage value.
Or possibly at [[Template:Orphan subpage/Metadata]], taken from the pagename in the metadata page.
What next?

If the page has content:

Someone may have created subpage content without an article.

A page may have been moved to a new location and this page may have been accidently left behind.

If the subpage has no content:

As this page is not associate with any article it should probably be deleted too.

If it is a metadata page:

Probably OK to delete since any page move would have required a new metadata page.
