Monaco is a skin originally developed by Fandom. The original port and can be downloaded here but a more recent one, which is compatible with at MediaWiki 1.35+ is available from Universal Omega No version before 1.35.0 is supported on this version.

  • A variation of the Monaco skin with some compatibility fixes for the WikiEditor extension and Monobook/Vector styled buttons can be found here.

The fork by James Haley lists these new additions:

  • A new Widgets framework which cooperates with Extension:Gadgets to allow sidebar content to be defined through the MediaWiki frontend.
  • Special support for Extension:FlaggedRevs and Extension:MobileFrontend when they are installed.
  • Wiki copyright notice is displayed in the footer of every page as with WikiMedia-maintained skins.
  • Numerous bug fixes to stylesheets, JavaScript, and php HTML generation.

  • First Version that support MediaWiki verison 1.31, but not tested
  • Implementation of extending the Sidebar Menu with User and Group Sidebar Elements like Extension "DynamicSidebar"

1.35 and 1.36 support was added by Universal Omega in the most recent fork.
