The Quartz Skin Customization page tells people not to include the links 
they use up top inside the sidebar. But the Sidebar is also used in 
MonoBook and thus if they do not put it there then those still using 
MonoBook can't navigate around the site.

Could we finally get a method of specifying different sidebar stuff in 
Quartz than in MonoBook.

There are only two options I can think of.

The best one:
Use [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]] for MonoBook. And use 
[[MediaWiki:Quartzsidebar]] for Quartz. [[MediaWiki:Quartzsidebar]] will 
be - by default and when left like that it will fallback to 
[[MediaWiki:Sidebar]]. That way all normal sidebars are still left the 
same, but we can also customize the Quartz sidebar if we need.

There is only one other way to do it, link removal in this case...
Use [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]] for the Sidebar in all skins. But have a 
[[MediaWiki:Quartzsidebarremove]] or some other message. Inside that 
will be a list with links inside [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]] that should be 
ignored.
So if [[MediaWiki:Sidebar]] was:
* Navigation
** mainpage|mainpage
** recentchanges-url|recentchanges
** helppage|help
Then [[MediaWiki:Quartzsidebarremove]] would either be:
* mainpage|mainpage
* recentchanges-url|recentchanges
Or:
* Navigation
** mainpage|mainpage
** recentchanges-url|recentchanges
Depending on what syntax you want, and it would ignore those links in 
the sidebar while in quartz.
