Which version of Mediawiki were you looking at setting up? I'd like to keep my testing environment consistent, if possible.
The latest 1.22

When you get mediawiki installed, go to my mediawiki site and grab all the templates too. I just set them up in the past couple of days for use in the TDE wiki. They include a very good FAQ template as well. Navigate to the Special:Export page and put a check in ALL 3 boxes and paste the following list into the BIG export window (leave the little window blank).

That should get all the needed/relevant templates.
How are you doing menus on the website? I see the left column - static is fine, but I have also collected two menuing tools that are pure-css and really slick. One is the traditional fly-out (either horiz or ver) menus (w/sub-menus) - the other is a collapsible tree like a (tree mode) directory listing in konqueror file manager. Both can be used as the main menu for a site, or just included as minor elements where saving space is needed or desired.
Those are both nice menus (and if you don't mind my swiping the code, I may some day find a use for them somewhere else), but I do have a reason for keeping to static links in this case--it's that pesky Lynx compatibility again. I want to make things easy for people intent on setting up Trinity as the very first graphical environment on their brand- new Linux box, even if that perhaps isn't strictly necessary in this day and age. ;)
Feel free. I GPLv2'ed the entire 3-Column template and provide the tarball for download, so grab it and cannibalize it at will.
Take a look at the main css menus in Lynx (I use it too). It works beautifully. The tree menu does require js, so it does not play well with lynx. But, seriously, the css-menu provides a beautiful indented listing of all sub-menus in lynx.
E. just give me a shout and let me know what you need and I'll help any way I can.
I'm intending to do the Bugzilla skin this weekend, then look at the wiki next week. I may have some questions for you then.

We'll be here. You guys keep up the good work, I'm going back to picking blindly on systemd user session/process tracking...
