Hi Leia, Let me see if this answers it...
- for the sidebar, we pull default links from here: www.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar (and Monaco-toolbox). - for your wiki, if you create the page XYZ.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar, then that will be used instead (only admins can do this). - for personal use, if you create the page XYZ.wikia.com/wiki/User:ABC/Monaco-sidebar, then that will be used for you personally (same for Monaco-toolbox). So starters will automatically pull from the default page (www.wikia.com/wiki/MediaWiki:Monaco-sidebar) until an admin writes their own. Did that cover it? Thanks, John Q.
