Yeah, I think the specific case that Pan Sola brought up was that he
wanted to tighten up the spacing between the widgets on one of the
skins but not the other. But, these classes appear in the body tag all
the time, even on custom themes.

So just to clarify, wikiaSkinMonaco is for use on the pre-done
styles IE: Brick/Sapphire etc. that people want to alter slightly?

Sorry, big ups to Dantman also for suggesting this. I'm forgetful. :)
The skins with dark backgrounds one probably isn't as easy, because
a dark background could be created in MediaWiki:Monaco.css and I
wouldn't know about it while rendering the body tag. The php that
renders the skin would have to either check a preference that is set
to "this has a dark background, set 'skin-dark' in the body tag" or
would have to parse a mediawiki article on each load to pull in any
custom classes. Anyway, the addition of wikiaSkinMonaco, etc was a 2
minute job that hopefully moves customization options in the right
direction.

Ages ago I suggested body tags... Cept in the form:
skin-name and theme-name as well as an idea for mod-* tags to deal
with things like skins with dark backgrounds.
((Still think skin-monobook, skin-quartz, skin-monaco, theme-
custom, theme-brick, etc... would be better. Especially since it
keeps in line with the standard naming of other body tags...))

Hi all,
The <body> tag of Monobook, Quartz, and Monaco have an additional
css
class this morning. You can use the "wikiaSkinMonobook",
"wikiaSkinQuartz", and "wikiaSkinMonaco" classes to target specific
skins while writing styles in MediaWiki:Common.css.
The additional CSS class in the body tag was suggested to me by Pan
Sola for making minor margin tweaks to the various skins,
independent
of what skin was set as default. Please remember that Common.css is
loaded for every skin, every time. In customizing a theme for your
wiki, it's still best to choose one of the Custom options in the
skin
chooser and use MediaWiki:Quartz.css or MediaWiki:Monaco.css to
specify the styles.
