Of most interest are:

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

* [[mw:ResourceLoader/Default modules|Default Javascript Modules]]

* [{{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|administrators]].

* The user's own [[Special:MyPage/skin.js|/vector.js]] (exact name depends on the [[Wikipedia:Skin|skin]] in the user's preferences).
