That's not the point. The order is irrelevant for the most part here.

CSS selectors override only if they have the same weight/priority. an
"#id"-selector with depth has more weight than a simple tag selector.


The solution is to 
- 1) only set the background color in Common.css so the backgound image will be
preserved instead of overridden by the shorthand method
- 2) Prioritize your selector by overriding the weight (do this with the
"!important" keyword).

so, in MediaWiki:Common.css:


a:hover { background-color: pink !important; } 
a:active { background-color: #fcc !important; } 

or whatever, that should work.
