Featured content

A reusable template that renders a card element for an image or a YouTube video. See documentation on Template:Featured.

Sidebar content

The Main Page layout differs from the rest of the site: it features a sidebar within the main content area. The sidebar content is injected via MediaWiki:Bottom-notice-Main Page and positioned by Javascript. You can find more information about page notices in the extension documentation.

Pages in the MediaWiki namespace are editable by privileged users (group interface-admin).

Currently, the Main Page bottom notice contains:

calls to another pages in the MediaWiki namespace ({{int:name-of-the-page}})
direct text for link listings
a call for the featured template
