Again, I wanted to know if this is the right resource to be asking these
types of questions. This list isn't as busy as I would have expected.

Also, is there support for FORMS. I think I'm gonna have to make some
extensions!?
Ah
Graeme.

Hello,

I'm new to Wikipedia. My biggest frustration is that in order to find help,
you have to look in many different areas. Editing help is best found on
Wikipedia.org and Server Admin is best found on wikimedia.org. 

Anyways, I was wondering if anyone knows how to use system messages. For
instance, there is a system message "googlesearch". If I simply put
{{googlesearch}} it obviously doesn't get interpretted properly. 

This also begs another question. If I want to add my own JavaScript and/or
Flash properties, how would I do this. In wikimedia I cannot find the method
that ignores wikimedia so that I can properly define JavaScript/Flash blocks
of code?

Thank you,
Graeme.
