How to Hide the MediaWiki Special Version

Every page on a MediaWiki installation includes a Special:Version tab. When clicked, this displays the extended history of that particular page. It shows how many versions there have been, and what the changes were for each. If you run MediaWiki on your site, though, you can hide the Special:Version tab on all your pages. One simple added command does it. MediaWiki will still track changes and versions, but not display them (until you delete the command).

Instructions

    • 1

      Log into your MediaWiki account.

    • 2

      Click “MediaWiki” and then “MonoBook.css.”

    • 3

      Add the following line at the end of the text document that pops up: #ca-version { display:none!important; }

    • 4

      Save the page. The Special:Version tabs will no longer appear.
