I have just downloaded mediawiki - but no commons file in skins? I was wondering if I had done something wrong, or if I was meant to create it myself. At the moment the skins file has only the four basic skins in it. Thanks very much, Milo

Also, how can I make myself an administrator
I have since discovered I am a bureacrat. However for some reason I cannot access Special:UserRights
For userrights try Manual:CreateAndPromote.php .
Common.css will not normally have style rules included, since the skins' css files are entirely separate. You use the Common files for anything you wish to be shared between all of the skins, but there are no entries by default.
