Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Replying to [comment:2 bradleyt]:
 > Any page in a WordPress installation can be accessed at {page
 slug}/page/{number}, despite that pagination structure being intended for
 archives.

 Yes, that issue is being tracked in #28081.

 > In these cases the canonical url is wrong. For example, look at the
 canonical meta tag on these non-wordcamp pages:
 > https://wordpress.org/page/2/
 > https://wordpress.org/showcase/page/2/

 That's still an issue with WordPress.org's implementation of the
 `rel="canonical"` tag.

 By default, `rel_canonical()` does not output the canonical tag on these
 views, only on single posts or pages.
