You need to be logged in with a sysop account, like the one created during installation.

I am running mediawiki 1.6.9.

When I login to edit the side bar - MediaWiki:Sidebar, the "edit" tag is not there. When I clicked "view source" tag, the following page shows:

"This page has been locked to prevent editing;
 there are a number of reasons why this may be so,
 please see

http://www.animalgenome.org:2358/wiki/mediawiki/index.php?title=Infopedia:Protected_page&action=editProject:Protected page. "

but the "http://www.animalgenome.org:2358/wiki/mediawiki/index.php?title=Infopedia:Protected_page&action=editProject:Protected page" links not to a information page but an editor box. I didn't find any useful solutions from Google thus post here -- how may I edit the side bar?

Thanks, Zhiliang
