Page Head and Title This is defined by MediaWiki
<html>
<head>
...
</head>
<body>
Page Body: Body Header This is defined by your skin
Page Body: Wiki Page Content This is defined by MediaWiki (and inserted/abstracted by your skin)
Page Body: Body Footer This is defined by your skin
Page End This is defined by MediaWiki
</body>
</html>
