With both a few day old revision and the newest SVN r.79244, skin: Vector: Going to user preferences, the pages (User profile, Appearance, Date and time, Editing, etc.) appear correctly as tabs. However, clicking on any of these tabs results in no action - the javascript functionality behind is not working. It could be a problem in combination with jquery. In principle, jquery is being loaded, we have Vector-extension running and the hideable menus on the left are ok. However, we have code in Mediawiki:Common.js, which is unable to pick up the jquery. Should the preferences-tab-click be implemented through jquery, there may thus be a more generic jquery problem behind it.
I can't diagnose this without being able to view Special:Preferences, which I can't do without an account, which I can't create other than through a Citizendium-like request procedure. Can you give me a test account so I can poke at this?
Thanks for setting me up with a test account. This line appears in the HTML source of your pages and should be removed: <script type="text/javascript">var $j=jQuery.noConflict();</script> Although of course the real issue is that some modules aren't properly wrapped in (function($) { ... })(jQuery); , which should really be done for *all* modules by the resource loader itself. Repurposing this bug for that.

Repurposing this bug for that. This was done in r79246. I also fixed some JS errors on the preferences page in r79245.
I confirm that the root cause for the failing preferences is the jQuery.noConflict() setting.
