Download Firefox and the FireBug extension. Open FireBug, click the inspect
button. Click on a red link. FireBug will show you all the code related to
it. You can override the css and javascript by editing the wiki files
MediaWiki:Common.css and MediaWiki:Common.js. I don't know why you suppose
editing the mediawiki source code would be easier. This is much easier. You
do have to figure out how to do it, but this is really a trival kind of
programming.
