Wordpress.org mentions here, http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Structure_Tags , that using only %postname% may cause errors. Is this still true? Will someone give me an example other than if a post is called "wp admin"? Would the structure of /%postname%-%post_id%/ work?
Permalink Structure only %postname% (2 posts)

Posted 17 years ago #%postname%-%post_id%, yes.
But just %postname% isn't recommended for various reasons. Mainly because a page and a post could have the same slug, and then collide. Posts and pages can't have the same slug, but last I tried it, a page and a post could.
To be honest, if it's an attempt at SEO, it doesn't hold as much weight as it used to.
%category%/%postname%/ would be fine.
If it's for aesthetic reasons, one more section won't really hurt.
