Help with some codes for other wikis

Hi how can I force background colour and the outside box like ja:Template:Documentation/start box please because I would like to add


<div class="template-documentation" style="background-color:#ecfcf4; border:1px solid #aaa; padding:12px;">

This type of bit to a module because some wikis doint have template in there main css so how can I add it to module please. what I means is how can I get it to show the green box to show if the wiki doesent have the css codes for it. 86.135.255.226 (talk) 15:09, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

I had a look into this, and there isn't an easy way to do it right now, as it would require changing both Module:Documentation and Module:Message box. This would be a good feature to develop for the next releases of these modules, but until then the only way of doing this is by copying the relevant parts of MediaWiki:Common.css into your common.css file. — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 15:59, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

Watching documentation templates

It's irritating that, if I watch a template, I don't automatically watch the related /documentation page. To help alleviate this, would it be possible to add a "watch" link to the existing [view] [edit] [history] [purge] set? Or is there a better solution?

When I want to watch a page like that I use popups; you can hover over the link and then click the "watch" link under the "actions" menu. Also, I'm not sure a watch link would be useful for most users, but perhaps someone better at CSS/JavaScript than I could tell you how to a customised link to your personal .js or .css pages? — Mr. Stradivarius ♪ talk ♪ 13:01, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
@Pigsonthewing: try this one. it's a bit hackish, but seems to work. you may also be interested in the infoboxgap.js script, which automates the procedure of inserting a numerical gap in an infobox before adding a new field (creates a link to 'infobox gap' in the tools section on the left side).

Thank you. I asked about a script for infobox numbering a while ago and was told there wasn't one; I didn't know that had changed. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 17:53, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
