User:GhostInTheMachine/UI

The script adjusts the Vector skin to suit my personal preferences.

• remove the Wikipedia logo to save space in the sidebar
• remove the logout link to make things safer and to save some space
• add a "My pages" menu to the sidebar and populates it with links to some of my subpages
• add a "My gadgets" menu to the sidebar and populates it with assorted handy gadgets and tool
• remove some of the other menus from the sidebar

The script changes the layout of the "standard" menus and adds extra menus.

This script was written to move existing menu items added by other scripts and gadgets such as Twinkle.

If the menu items do not exist, then this script will handle that without any fuss.

Add the following line to your common.js file.

This script tends to collect small changes all the time
