I've long usod the patch for putting arbitrary
wikitext into the side bar, but but according to
the manual it won't work in the latest version of
mediawiki. I really don't like not to update, but
neither do I want to lose this possoibility. What
is there to do?

Allow wiki markup (PHP)
Many people on support desk have been asking
about how to put arbitrary wikitext into the
side bar. You can hack your skins/Monobook.php
file (if you're using monobook) and replace the
following section of code. (Note that this patch
doesn't work for the new MediaWiki 1.13.2)
