--- Comment #22 from Quim Gil <q...@wikimedia.org> --- I don't think we have any problem that Wordpress, Drupal, etc haven't addressed yet. Skins should be about skinning, not about providing extra functionality. As long as modifying the Vector skin is a pain, most MediaWikis will look alike. Good skinning includes: * Changing typefaces and font sizes * Changing colors and backgrounds * Changing variable/fixed width * Changing the position of navigation bars horizontal or vertical left/right * Customizing the footer Technically, MediaWiki and vector allow you to do this... In practice doing this and maintaining your changes is a pain that almost nobody wants to go through. I agree that having skins with different functionality for plain MediaWiki and WMF sites would be really troublesome for many reasons. Good skinning + extensions available to anybody should suffice. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
