Thank you very much for the quick reply. I will try

Note, by the way - this doesn't stop people who realise it's MediaWiki
from going to the various MediaWiki special pages and so on if they
know how to construct the URLs by hand! (This is a common way of
working out if someone's using MediaWiki for their website, for
example.) It's not a security measure, just obfuscation.
