This page documents and demonstrates the WMAU skin for MediaWiki. This skin was developed in 2021 to help make Wikimedia Australia's website more focused on readers than editors, and to make it easier to find out who we are and what we do.

Images

Right-floated thumbs look like this, with a long caption that goes lorem ipsum lorem ipsum for a while.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Etiam vehicula nunc non venenatis egestas. Vestibulum finibus erat id orci egestas tincidunt non et urna. Cras eget rhoncus lectus. Maecenas pharetra est quam, egestas pretium leo aliquam id.

Left-floated thumbs look like this.

Sed non dignissim orci. Vivamus diam enim, commodo id consectetur ut, gravida quis erat. Vivamus molestie lobortis mattis. Quisque pretium, enim in tincidunt posuere, ligula odio vestibulum dolor, in tristique quam nulla eget nulla. Nam id dolor ac ligula aliquet varius. Vivamus diam enim, commodo id consectetur ut, gravida quis erat. Vivamus molestie lobortis mattis. Quisque pretium, enim in tincidunt posuere, ligula odio vestibulum dolor, in tristique quam nulla eget nulla. Nam id dolor ac ligula aliquet varius. Vivamus diam enim, commodo id consectetur ut, gravida quis erat. Vivamus molestie lobortis mattis. Quisque pretium, enim in tincidunt posuere, ligula odio vestibulum dolor, in tristique quam nulla eget nulla. Nam id dolor ac ligula aliquet varius.

And a centered thumb is all on its own.

This is a thumb with no alignment specified.

Banners

Pages can have banner images, similar to those on Wikivoyage. For example, the banner at the top of this page is produced by adding the following wikitext:

{{PAGEBANNER:Hackathon Banner above Hacking Area.jpg}}

See mw:Extension:WikidataPageBanner#Usage for full details.

Cards

See mw:Extension:LinkCards for more information and usage instructions.

This is the card title Card body text can be anything.

This card has no title.

Rows and columns

Column widths are ratios.

This is .col-1

This is .col-2

This is .col-3

This is .col-1

<div class="row">
<div class="col-1" style="background-color:lightblue">This is <code>.col-1</code></div>
<div class="col-2" style="background-color:lightpink">This is <code>.col-2</code></div>
</div>
<div class="row">

Tables

This is the caption of the table.

Header A	Header B	Header C	Header D	Header E
Data A1	Data B1	Data C1	Data D1	Data E1
Data A2	Data B2	Data C2	Data D2	Data E2

Some tables can get very wide, so we let them extend into the margins on wide screens (and scroll on narrow ones):

Header 1	Header 2	Header 3	Header 4
