Forum:How do I make something like the PAGENAME

How do I make something like, where is it, Mediawiki? Tell me where it is and/or more.
 * You can't make it. It is one of the preprogrammed things with MediaWiki. ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 21:09, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

 * You can't make them. They are not what Wikia makes. They are what MediaWiki makes, I think. ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 21:17, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * I know, thats why i'm tring to put it in mediawiki.Funkey100 (talk) 21:27, May 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ok. MediaWiki is an organization of sorts. It is what powers a lot of wikis, Wikia and Wikipedia included. That is just a way to change the format of that wiki. You can not change MediaWiki, just use what MediaWiki gives users the ability to do. Common.css is just a way of you using MediaWiki and you can't add anything MediaWiki doesn't allow. ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 21:32, May 20, 2010 (UTC)

So, is there any way to contact mediawiki?Funkey100 (talk) 21:36, May 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Well, Here's there website. ☆ The  Solar  Dragon  ( Talk ) ☆ 21:42, May 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Take note that even if you make them add something, wich i think is very unlikely (sorry), it will take time before Wikia wikis gets updated to the version of the software that include that new feature.
 * Dont get me wrong. I would love too that new usefulls features get added to the software. But since you didn't even care to shared what is on your mind with us... We can't even comment the idea.
 * Or, we can't even tell you how to do what you want to do using another way, method. — TulipVorlax 02:38, May 21, 2010 (UTC)

PAGENAME is an inbult system 'variable', that can be used by templates - See mediwiki help for details. They are actually special fixed values set up in the system code and new ones can be added to a mediawiki installation by the sites management which on here is Wikia Inc. As this is the Core code it is very unlucky they would change the 'system' for you IMO, or as TulipVorlax asks, are you actually on about a creating a template for something else, as your post is rather vague as to purpose of 'making' something like. - BulldozerD11 16:20, May 21, 2010 (UTC)

 * Create a page called Template:Categories, enter  . Why wouldn't that suffice? --BramTalk/IGW 21:14, May 21, 2010 (UTC)
