Not yet, as I've not been able to make time to fully investigate and

I'm not sure but unless there is something stored in the database, I
can't imagine any customizations because there aren't any config files,
themes, CSS overrides, etc to speak of in QEMU's MediaWiki installation.
It's just running the vanilla container image.

The QEMU wiki runs from the vanilla mediawiki 1.39 container image.
The Vector (2022) theme comes with Mediawiki and there are no
QEMU-specific customizations.
You can get the same look with the vanilla Mediawiki container image
with the following in LocalSettings.php:
$wgDefaultSkin = "vector-2022";
wfLoadSkin('Vector');
Sorry I am not able to fix this quickly myself. I don't have much
Mediawiki knowledge but if you tell me what to do we can certainly
customize QEMU's wiki.

Send me the tweaks and I will apply them to wiki.qemu.org. Is the current QEMU mediawiki code (or just theme) published anywhere that I can base work off ?

Yes, that sounds good. The quickest would be for you to: 1. Run https://hub.docker.com/_/mediawiki/ in a container on your machine. 2. Adjust the theme CSS until you are happy. 3. Send me the tweaks and I will apply them to wiki.qemu.org. If you don't have time, I'll add this to my todo list but no guarantees when I'm able to do it. Thanks, Stefan
