I'm new to MediaWiki as well but I'd handle this by doing an extension http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Mediawiki_Extensions
Perhaps write a generic one that'd allow anyone to do this.
But I'll be interested to see others responses.

Hello,
I'm new to Wikipedia. My biggest frustration is that in order to find help, you have to look in many different areas. Editing help is best found on Wikipedia.org http://Wikipedia.org and Server Admin is best found on wikimedia.org http://wikimedia.org.
Anyways, I was wondering if anyone knows how to use system messages. For instance, there is a system message "googlesearch". If I simply put {{googlesearch}} it obviously doesn't get interpretted properly.
This also begs another question. If I want to add my own JavaScript and/or Flash properties, how would I do this. In wikimedia I cannot find the method that ignores wikimedia so that I can properly define JavaScript/Flash blocks of code?
Thank you, Graeme.
