Manual:Interface/JavaScript

MediaWiki:Common.js contains JavaScript that will be loaded for all users. This file is loaded for all users, but there are similar files affecting only users of specific skins (see below); although only Monobook.js is listed on Special:Allmessages, the other skin-specific stylesheets will work nonetheless.

if $wgAllowUserJs is set to true, users can customize the interface for themselves only by creating user subpages with lowercase titles (see below).
