edit] How do I change the default skin for users that are not logged in?

MediaWiki FAQ - Meta
Set $wgDefaultSkin = 'monobook'; in LocalSettings.php (see example). Make sure that the quoted skin is in lowercase in the LocalSettings.php file (ie: 'monobook', not 'MonoBook') regardless of how the skin name is actually capitalized. Note: As always, first ensure that you're not viewing a cached page - perform a "hard refresh", clear the browser cache, or view a page that didn't exist before the change.) There was a bug in versions of MediaWiki prior to 1.3.

Language.php says: /* private */ $wgDefaultUserOptionsEn = array( ... 'searchlimit' => 20, ... ) To change it to 50, put this in your LocalSettings.

By default, I have a personal page. Do I have to change it?
