The broader question to the experts: how to replace the system messages
with something invisible without CSS tricks?
John, the following method works but it really a desperate
and wretched one: add to your MediaWiki:Common.css page the following:
span.mw-usertoollinks>a:nth-of-type(2), {
display:none;
}
This will hide the contribslink but the extra "|" will remain.

Hi there, MediaWiki-l folks. For this wiki
version...
MediaWiki 1.19.1
PHP 5.2.17 (cgi-fcgi)

...by any chance is there a way (that a non-programmer, like me, would
understand) to prevent the "contribslink" from existing? Or at least
stop some user groups from getting it? This is the link with text
that's controlled by the "MediaWiki:contribslink" page; it appears as
"contribs" by default, in various places. I'm never going to need
that link.
Thank you very much.
