Comment:

 There is no fixed slug for "page". Pages get their slugs directly from the
 Page. If the page's slug is "bongo" then the URL is
 http://example.com/bongo/ .

 The fixed bases are: author, search, comments, and feed. You can edit them
 by changing the relevant lines in rewrite.php.

 {{{
 var $permalink_structure;
         var $use_trailing_slashes;
         var $category_base;
         var $category_structure;
         var $author_base = 'author';
         var $author_structure;
         var $date_structure;
         var $page_structure;
         var $search_base = 'search';
         var $search_structure;
         var $comments_base = 'comments';
         var $feed_base = 'feed';
 }}}

 Just change them there. While it would be nice if these were editable in
 the admin screens, you will run into the problem of people trying to set
 them to blank and then wondering why none of their permalinks work. They
 try that with the category base all the time, right now.
