Dear Michael,
I'm not a technical expert and know little about the workings MediaWiki, so I'm
wary of trying to answer your questions and inadvertently giving you the wrong
information. I'd suggest instead that you resend your email to
mediawiki-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org , which is staffed by MediaWiki developers. They will be
in a much better position to give you advice and assistance. Sorry to fob you off, but
I'd rather you got the right answers!
Yours sincerely,
Yun Shui

2 final questions:
1. so (but) I just want to use the button-interface optimised for mobiles (aka
mobile css-template or also called dropdown-menu, i'm allowed to do this?
2. I dont really understand, I don't want to make a database or dictionary,
Im not sure, because of the appache-support, so allow me to ask the stupid direct
question is mediawiki also able to create websites (at least to some degree like
frontpage/joomla/wordpress/dreamweaver or alike, and so it would have to support
css3 and html5, has templates or frame-like-tools inside and such things?...(of
course I don't expect effects or layers...just need a css-like
dropdown-button-menu!)
Please respond for this a last time.

Dear Michael,
You can download and use the MediaWiki software, which powers Wikipedia, for free
- it is open source and can be used for any purpose, including commercially. The
main MediaWiki site is located here <https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki>,
and there is information on the mobile version here
<https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Wikimedia_mobile_engineering>.
For images, you may want to take a look at Wikimedia Commons
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page>, which is the primary image
repository for Wikipedia. It is searchable by topic or categorisation, and
contains over 25 million free images.
Yours sincerely,
Yun Shui

:) Hallo,
I have a not so daily special Copy & use-Rights! (terms) question,
because I am actually looking for a mobile optimised free webtemplate
and thought "can I use The/your mobile wikipedia webtemplate? for free? commercial
too?
and the most questionable question, even if You could give the rights to do so,
I need one without made by xy footer on the bottom, which the owners most times
dont want...
Maybe you have a little advice or link in that way for me? But please anyway
respond. Thanks.
Also I would be interested if there now or soon a way on wikipedia for a
search-fuction
(like in the google-pictures) to just find (free to use) pictures? (and with some
exceptions)
do I ever have to paste directly said when I would use them the gpl rules for open
source (in the footer),
because thats a very unpleasant tiny thing...
Kind Regards,
Michael from Austria
