The left sidebar can be customized by editing Special:MyPage/skin.js or Special:MyPage/common.js. skin.js applies to only the current skin, where common.js globally applies to all skins.
Overview
General usage:
mw.util.addPortletLink( 'portletId', 'href', 'text', 'id', 'tooltip', 'accesskey', 'nextnode');
Where:
mw.util.addPortletLink: the ResourceLoader module to add links to the portlets.portletId: portlet idp-navigation: Navigationp-interaction: Interactionp-tb: Toolboxcoll-print_export: Print/export
href: Link to the Wikipedia or eternal pagetext: Text that displaysid: HTML id (optional)tooltip: Tooltip that displays on mouseover (optional)accesskey: Shortcut key press (optional)nextnode: Existing portlet link to place the new portlet link before (optional)
Href
Links to Wikipedia pages are of the form '/wiki/page name'; example: '/wiki/Special:NewPages'.
External links are formatted using the full URL; example: 'http://example.org'.
There are a number of configuration variables that can be used to create more complex links:
wgArticlePath: Local path, starting at the root, to reference articles, containing a "$1" placeholder that may be replaced by a page title to get a valid URL to that page.wgPageName: The full name of the page, including the localized namespace name, if the namespace has a name (the main namespace (number 0) doesn't), and with blanks replaced by underscores.wgServer: The server URL, not terminated by "/".
Given a valid page title title, a valid URL may be constructed using wgArticlePath.replace('$1', title)
wgServer+wgArticlePath.replace("$1", "Special:ArticleFeedbackv5/"+wgPageName)
Examples
Add link to Special:NewPages in the Toolbar:
mw.util.addPortletLink ('p-tb', '/wiki/Special:NewPages', 'New Pages');
Open page in Checklinks
mw.util.addPortletLink ('p-tb', 'http://toolserver.org/~dispenser/cgi-bin/webchecklinks.py/' + wgPageName
+ '?client=script&citeweb=on&overwrite=&limit=20&lang=' + wgContentLanguage, 'Checklinks');
