For the MonoBook skin, you can edit templates/xhtml_slim.pt (in 1.3) or
skins/MonoBook.php (in 1.4). Be careful, as invalid XML will break the
PHPTal template (in 1.3) and bad PHP code will break things in 1.4
Another unrelated question.
Wikipedia.org has a line
"From Wikipedia,
the free encyclopedia." displayed on every page. But I don't see such
message displayed on my wiki, even I've customized the
Mediawiki:Fromwikipedia. Is there a flag I have to turn on? I couldn't
see anything in LocalSettings.php.
The stylesheet for MonoBook normally hides it except in print view. Add
something like this to your [[MediaWiki:Monobook.css]] (or hack the
files) to force it on:
#siteSub { display: block; }
(It's normally on in some of the other skins.)
