If I surf to http://wiki.opensuse.org/openSUSE_Test to create the page,
I'll end add:
http://wiki.opensuse.org/OpenSUSE_Test

But openSUSE is always spelt with a lower case o - so how can I create a
page called "openSUSE Test"?

You can use variable:
{{DISPLAYTITLE:openSUSE Test}}
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Page_name
section "Changing the displayed title".

Although it will be better to have "openSUSE test" :)

I'd like to have this solved for the wiki if possible.

It is, by turning off first letter capitalization.

Above is probably used to make openSUSE: namespace properly spelled, without
changing default MediaWiki behavior that can have as consequence a lot of
broken links in articles.

For example:
[[switch runlevel]] as part of the sentence will link to article "Switch
runlevel", but after overriding default it will link to "switch runlevel" that
doesn't exist.

Btw. do our guidelines document that openSUSE is spelled always this way?
Andreas

Yes.

Not exactly easy to find, and ditto not easy to link.
Filling Portal:Wiki with links will help, but one has to browse anyway.
