 The problem you are seeing is "caused" by the  Flagged Revisions extension.

See: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14128

It's fixed in r77510, so... an update to the extension should fix it
right up. Looks like quite an old version in use on the oS Wiki...
see: http://en.opensuse.org/Special:Version - third entry under
"Special Pages"

Basically, if you want to use the FlaggedRevs tools you need to have
Javascript enabled.  If you don't care about it/use it, then if the
extension is updated, it'll simply be inaccessible to you as a page
viewer - ie you will not be able to check page validity etc.
