Forum:New 'Write an article' link in Sidebar - how to get rid of it?

As the title says the 'Write an Article' button/link in the sidebar, is there anyway to get rid of it? I'm sure it would help on some wikias, but I think that it will also encourage vandalism and random pages being created. Or if it isn't able to be deleted is there somewhere I can change where it links to (so at least then the page can have the appropriate warnings and links to Manual of style and other things like that). Thanks. --Tangerineduel 14:06, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Yes, it works.  for the "add image" one. --D. (talk · contr) 14:40, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Could I just ask where I put this? Thanks. --Tangerineduel 16:06, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * MediaWiki:Monaco.css of your wiki. --D. (talk · contr) 16:25, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * It seems to me the entire link_box_dynamic serves no purpose that Monaco-toolbox cannot. Get rid of it using
 * within MediaWiki:Monaco.css
 * If the ultimate goal is to allow the Monaco-toolbox to display different links depending on which namespace a page belongs to then please make that a configuration option within MediaWiki:Monaco-toolbox but please leave the choice of displayed links to those of us who are creating the wiki. (I notice that the displayed links change for the User_blog: namespace.) najevi 17:54, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * You dont have to put "div" in front of the ID... — TulipVorlax 18:24, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I tried that out, but there is now no "upload image" option available! Where are the lower toolbox options stored so that it can be added there? --Mulder 18:46, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * MediaWiki:Monaco-toolbox for the default language of the wiki. If you want others languages than the defaut of the wiki to see changes on the toolbox, you must also edit MediaWiki:Monaco-toolbox/xx where xx is the language code. — TulipVorlax 19:10, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks, but the options to the side now keep changing, with some disappearing from the ones I've selected, depending on which page I visit. Is there a way to stop this? --Mulder 20:05, 15 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Put the "whatlinkshere" last. — TulipVorlax 02:52, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

Does anyone know how to change the color of the white background in these 2 boxes ("write an article" and "add image")? --Mulder 17:03, 15 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Ah thanks AB and everyone else for the assistance. --Tangerineduel 14:22, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

I have the same problem with the "write an article" button on Bully Wiki, but I don't understand the advice on getting rid of it being given in this topic. Where does  go? McJeff 08:24, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
 * MediaWiki:Monaco.css. See also Help:Customizing Monaco.--AB 12:59, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

Has someone done this? I would like a link to a wiki where the above had been done. JohnBeckett 10:50, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

 * Thanks AB – very nice. However, I can't make it work (I've cleared cache and waited). Would someone please look at w:c:vim:MediaWiki:Monaco.css and tell me why I'm still seeing "Write an Article" and "Add Image" in the sidebar? Thanks. JohnBeckett 08:38, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Don't know. It took me a few versions to get the wiki to reflect the changes.--AB 19:48, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
 * OK. I understand the sidebar is heavily cached so maybe it will fix itself in due course. JohnBeckett 00:27, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Write article link now replaced by New page link
Hellow again. Has anyone noticed the 'Write article' link has now been replaced by a 'New page' link in the sidebar? Is it just a case to get rid of this one to replace (or add underneath) ? Thanks. --Tangerineduel 14:06, 5 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Quick note: yes, we've made a few tweaks to that area recently to reduce the word count, and improve the layout. I believe the change in the code may have caused it to reshow on wikis where it's been removed - I'm not sure of updated code to do so, so I'll leave that bit to others. 15:41, 5 August 2009 (UTC)


 * I just checked that and now, even if we remove the link and the icon using the following CSS bit, it will leave an empty space...
 * #dynamic-links-write-article-link, #dynamic-links-write-article-icon { display:none; }
 * Each of the table cells should have some class or id. — TulipVorlax 19:54, 5 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Any updates on this? I can't even figure out how to change the background color of this thing. --DaNASCAT 19:59, 9 August 2009 (UTC)


 * Have you tried

background-color:red; }
 * 1) link_box_dynamic {
 * or something ? — TulipVorlax 03:24, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
