When you create a page you have to put the name of the page not the  
title of the page or a description of the page...
So in this case you should name it something like:  
"TutorialHowToUseWindows" for example or simple "WindowsTutorial" or  
whatever other name you want to give to that page.
You can then set its title either inside the document as a level 1  
title with:

1 Tutorial: How to use Windows

Or using the title field.

Of course we should also fix the error so that it's more user  
friendly. Basically you're not allowed to use ":" in page names since  
this is a reserved keyword used to specify that a document is located  
in another subwiki.
For example: subwiki:Space.Page is the Page page located in the Space  
space in the subwiki Wiki.

Please create a jira issue for this so that we can improve it in the  
future.

Thanks
