== Built-in scripts ==

All Wikipedia pages include some built-in [[MediaWiki]] JavaScript code, with variables and functions that can be utilized in user scripts. The specific code depends on the viewed page and current users, for more details see [[Wikipedia:Catalogue of CSS classes#Stylesheets and JavaScript]].

Of most interest are:

* moreMore than 30 project-, page- and user-specific variables at the top of the rendered HTML page.

* [{{SERVER}}/skins-1.5/common/wikibits.js wikibits.js]

* [[MediaWiki:Common.js]] (as [{{SERVER}}{{SCRIPTPATH}}/index.php?title=-&action=raw&smaxage=0&gen=js generated]), supported by local [[Wikipedia:Administrators|Administratorsadministrators]].

* The user's own [[Special:MyPage/monobook.js|/monobook.js]] (exact name depends on the [[Wikipedia:Skin|skin]] in yourthe user's preferences) which is your own script file.
