Before MediaWiki 1.16, most JavaScript was in wikibits.js and other files in /skins/common/. From MediaWiki 1.17 and later on these are modernized into an object oriented library stored in ResourceLoader modules. Also jQuery has been introduced in the core as of MediaWiki 1.16, and loaded by default on every page as of 1.17.
