Hi :)
I would like to reproduce the template of the MediaWiki Home page. I
read documentation about templates but I'm not sure that's what I need
as the blocks I want to create are meant to be used only on the Home
page of my wiki.
Also, I would like to know how to use CSS to place those blocks like on
the MediaWiki Home page. I'm using the Vector theme.
Thanks for any help :)

I was able to do this by viewing the source of
Wikipedia's/Mediawiki's
main page, copy it & past it into yours using your edit function. Then
figure out what you want it to do & weed out the stuff you don't want.
You can even do it in a sandbox so that you can play with it safely.
Also take note of the templates used on Wikipedia/Mediawiki and make
sure they are available on your site.
Best wishes!
