==Customizable interface==
 
==Customizable interface==
 
MediaWiki allows a high degree of customizability to websites it powers, often by directly editing the PHP of the site, although users are often able to edit a personal [[JavaScript]] or [[CSS]] (Cascading Style Sheets) file to customize large portions of the interface to their own preferences. An example of a common interface element primarily changed through direct editing of the PHP is the site logo, defined by the $wgLogo variable.

===MediaWiki namespace===
 +
Many interface elements, collectively known as system messages, are defined by pages in the MediaWiki namespace. These pages are, by default, protected to be only editable by administrators, as they define global interface elements.

==Section editing==
 +
MediaWiki allows articles to be broken up into sections for the sake of convenience, and generally allows these sections to be individually editable.
