Insufficient documentation

An explanation for this variable is missing. The reference to "See MediaWiki:Common.css" is not helping. Is "MediaWiki:Common.css" equal or different to the "site's stylesheets"? --G.Hagedorn 13:04, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'll +1 that. Please document further. Also, MediaWiki:Common.css was moved to MediaWiki:Gadget-site.css without leaving a redirect. Does that affect the functionality of this variable? - Frenz242 (talk) 05:26, 9 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Second

I agree, this documentation is severely Lacking

I'm having trouble with common.css. Was hoping this variable might do something. Seems there is no way to tell what the hell it is for.

This variable tells MW whether to use MediaWiki:Common.css at all. Set it to false if you are only getting your styles from somewhere else (e.g. main.css, or any other css source called from your skin). rotsee 22:40, 18 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
