I discovered with some tinkering that I could play with this text in / skins/monobook/main.css:

p { margin: 1.0em 0em 0.5em 0em; line-height: 1.5em; }

I adjusted that first number to "1.0em" and the spacing changed.

Are there good reasons for doing it your way instead of modifying main.css?

Hi all,

After looking through the manuals, and being a neophyte when it comes to templates and CSS, I cannot figure out how to adjust the spacing between paragraphs in my mediawiki site. Our articles tend to be long, and I think that more space would be easier on the eye. How can I put in more space between paragraphs?

Put in MediaWiki:Monobook.css:

p { margin-bottom: 1em; }

or something similar. Change the "1" to get different amounts of spacing.

My new wiki site seems to be installed and running OK.

I would like to know how I can install my own logo. Wikipedia and other sites have their own logo up in the top left hand corner, but I would like to have my own logo there instead.
