skins for various user groups
Hello, has someone informations about skins for various user groups ? Where can I see which user has which skin in active mode ?

I want something like a red background for an admin user and a green background for a normal user. Are there extensions for my problem ? I found nothing

Thanks

Wann endlich in Deutsch?
Es wäre ungeheuer notwendig, wenn es diese Erläuterungen endlich auch in deutscher Sprache gäbe. So gut kann das amerikanische Englisch der Durchschnittsdeutschen nicht sein, um hier keine Fehler zu begehen.--Jens Rusch 06:49, 25 September 2009 (UTC) -

Vector
Looking for information on the new Vector theme now in use at Wikipedia. This page does not reflect the change. --Erikmoe 18:40, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Paint it black
Hi all,

I think that a skin with a dark background will save energy, as opposed to the current black text on white background. The search engine Blackle uses a dark background. Maybe we should try using an energy-saving skin (based on Vector) on Wikipedia etc.?

Thanks,

"User types"?
Hi,

I'm going to change this page in a second, but I wanted there to be a place to discuss the change, and for others to know why I did it.

The configuration of "user|developer|administrator" might be sort of helpful, but it's very divisive, and buckets people into groups to which they may not always subscribe. For example, the first-time administrator (one of the most common visitors to this page) would not think to look at that column, they would look at the users column. Typing people rather than actions is not super-helpful.

With that in mind, I'm changing it to remove the "user type" column and expanding the "action" column. If you have a problem with that, feel free to revert, but I'd very much appreciate an explanation.

Thanks! --MarkTraceur (talk) 14:59, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
