Maybe I'd put the note at the bottom of the test case, instead of the top?

And maybe it doesn't have to be highlighted, but it can be a standard section (a header and a text)?

We will likely have this present in many test cases and the current appearance seems too... shouting. It's not an especially important information (unlike, for example, an information which bugs currently affect test case verification). It's a useful information and a standard part of every relevant test case, so maybe it should look like a standard text part?

Example:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Adamwill/Draft_QA_Testcase_anaconda_user_creation2
(there is an extra vertical space due to Test_case template, can be fixed)

What about using an unversioned page for Branched (with an existing FNN redirect) and once Fedora is released, just copy the contents into FNN page for historic purposes? It would simplify some things (links in our guides etc), and complicate others (links in bugzilla could go outdated).

Or maybe the other way around, redirect https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_Alpha_Release_Criteria to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_20_Alpha_Release_Criteria ? And use these unversioned links at least in the "associated criteria" template?

Unfortunately templates can't be used in redirects, so we would have to update these 3 redirects (Alpha, Beta, Final) every 6 months manually. So, maybe your solution (template in a template) is the best solution after all...
