This template makes the first letter in a page's title display as lowercase. Lowercase titles may be desired in certain cases of brand names or code and file formats that use unusual capitalization. This workaround is required because MediaWiki forces all page titles to start with an uppercase letter (with the exception of ß, as uppercase ẞ did not become official German orthography until 2017). This template only affects the actual page name; any displayed namespace is unaffected.
To use this template, add {{lowercase}} to the beginning of an article.
