Line 8:
One subpage name in particular is reserved to be an active page checked by Mediawiki (the name of the software program which runs Wikipedia). That subpage, called "vector.js", is used to customize your user account.
 
"JS" stands for ''[[JavaScript]]''. You can customize your Wikipedia account using [[Wikipedia:User scripts|JavaScript scripts]]. Whenever you log on, the MediaWiki software automatically accesses and runs any scripts found on your vector.js page (if you have one that is).
 
If you use Firefox, and you would like to upgrade your Wikipedia user account with the same scripts that I use, [[User:The Transhumanist/vector.js]] into [{{fullurl:Special:MyPage/skin.js&action=edit}} your .js page]. After saving the page, hold down Shift while clicking on Firefox's Reload icon.
