 * Monitor Special:RecentChanges rather than Special:WikiActivity, it's much better when it comes to patrolling (/spying on the editors) the changes for any mistakes or even vandalism.


 * Preview button is always your friend when editing (source ftw), you may have forgotten a square bracket when ending a link (oh no!) or a curly brace for templates/tables, helps alot if you made a mistake and you accidentally break something!


 * When making any CSS modifications to multiple elements, like say you wanted to make a certain special formatted table thing on the front page and you'd have to add the same inline CSS again and again and again and again, you shouldn't, just pop that css into MediaWiki:Wikia.css, MediaWiki:Monobook.css, or MediaWiki:Common.css, make a new class, and set all your elements to have that class, problem solved! No more eyesores over editing lotsa messy CSS, no more hassle to update them all one-by-one.
