Maybe you want this snip from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Common.css:
/* Other pages message box styles */
table.ombox {
margin: 4px 10%;
border-collapse: collapse;
border: 1px solid #aaa; /* Default "notice" gray */
background: #f9f9f9;
}
There is more below that, too. I prefer simple stuff myself. The
Wikipedia's templates are a few orders of magnitude more complex than
I like. Too many fingers in the pie I guess. Why note bake your own
templates, and keep it simple?
