Hi, my next question - and I am not sure if this is the right list to ask these questions, so if I am wrong, please tell me.
MediaWiki-l would probably be a slightly better choice, as that is aimed more at general users, where as wikitech-l is more for core developers and Wikimedia Foundation admins.
Now "Aiuto:" always has a red background - so there must be a place where I can set up this layout.
[...]
- where to edit these layouts?
I think this is done through CSS - specifically, the site-wide customisation in [[MediaWiki:Monobook.css]]. So, http://it.wiktionary.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Monobook.css contains this section:
/* Colore di fondo delle pagine Aiuto */ .ns-12 * #content { color : black; } .ns-12 * #content { background : #FFEEEE; } .ns-12 * #p-cactions li { background : #FFEEEE; } .ns-12 * #p-cactions li a { background : #FFEEEE; }
Where the 12 is the internal number of the namespace in question.
- is there a problem if I would like to create a separate namespace
(for example "Projects:") and where to create the pre-defined layout for this part.
I imagine (although I wouldn't guarantee) that if you use the "custom namespaces" feature, the outputted content will include attributes like the others, so that if you define namespace #100 as "Projects:", pages in that namespace will obey CSS rules beginning ".ns-100 *". So if you put them in your MediaWiki:Monobook.css page, they will apply to anyone using the monobook skin and looking at those pages.
