How to change the sidebar of a MediaWiki site?

The default left sidebar for the MediaWiki-enabled sidebar contains links such as Random Page and Current Events. I want to hide them.

Is there a way to do this other than using CSS ( display:none; )? Accordingly, is there a way to add pages to this list?

Will it require editing any PhP files?

Thanks.

The MediaWiki Guide may be the information you are looking for. (This was the best hit for the "mediawiki customize sidebar" on the search engine.)

No coding needed, just edit the " MediaWiki: Sidebar " page on your wiki. Administrator rights are necessary, obviously.

Another alternative is to simply change the link to:

 http://yourdomain/yourwiki/index.php?title=MediaWiki:Sidebar&action=submit
