Hi!
In an own installation of mediawiki, I would like to use this skin by default: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gallery_of_user_styles/NullBook
For testing I added it to User:MyUserName/myskin.css but then the skin was just totally messed up (no skin at all).
Or asked the other way around, how am I supposed to use any of the skins listed here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Gallery_of_user_styles
They most of the time only provide a css file, but the skin folder of mediawiki seems to require a .php file and a whole folder with css.
Must I create a new .php file myself? Can't I just use a premade one?
Cheers, adrelanos

Those are the default ones. What about the user created ones? I am asking how to use them.

You can use one of the bundled ones if you're willing to just change MediaWiki:Common.css to contain the CSS necessary
The CSS you're looking at, though, relies on the MySkin which was removed a few months ago. https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/25170/

This means, this skin can't be easily used without deeper understanding mediawiki skinning and manually fixing it by editing the code?

MySkin is still in MW 1.21, so if you're using this on your own wiki, it shouldn't be a problem unless you installed your wiki from git.
