Customizing MediaWiki for beginners/zh

This is an introduction for beginning users of MediaWiki on how to customize your MediaWiki installation. It assumes that you already have MediaWiki installed, and have a basic understanding of how to use HTML and CSS.

更改背景顏色
To change the background color of the MediaWiki interface outside of the page content and tabs, add the following CSS to the MediaWiki page  (you can access this page by typing " " into your MediaWiki search box).

This will change the background color outside of the tabs, search, and page content to red (or whatever your favorite color is).

加入Google字型
Google Fonts is a repository of free open-source fonts that you can easily use on MediaWiki. Go to, find some fonts that you like, and select them by clicking the "plus" (+) icon. You can select more than one Google Font to be added. You should see a pop-up on your browser stating "n Families Selected," with n being the number of fonts that you have selected. Click the tab for the pop-up notification, and then select "@IMPORT." Copy and paste the CSS there into, following the examples below (which use Noto Sans and Noto Serif, the default fonts for the free open-source Android operating system, which have good support for Unicode text).
