It looks disgusting and very messy, try the cleaner look. Hate incoming ! Apparently a layout that crams all the content into the centre of the screen while riddling everything else with ads is a "cleaner look". The only reason I used Monobook is because I struggled with the "cleaner look" for weeks when I first started editing wikis. Finding Monobook in the options menu was a godsend. The fact that Monobook was "old-school" is what made it great. It dispensed with all the unnecessary trash present in Oasis, loaded faster, and could fit everything you needed to possibly click on one screen without needing to scroll. If you only browse through wikis while making the occasional edit, Oasis may be perfectly fine for your needs. However, Monobook was amazing for making lots of edits in a short space of time because it was so lightweight.

By the way, I'm not hating. Both the "cleaner look" and Monobook have their pros and cons, but Monobook should not just be so easily dismissed because it looks old. And also, you'd lose your bet, because I'm from the '90s :)
