The "Show table of contents (for pages with more than 3 headings)" user preference should be removed from MediaWiki core. The table of contents box is auto-inserted, can trivially be hidden or exposed on a per-page basis with __MAGICWORDS__, includes a sticky [show|hide] link, and can be easily hidden with site-wide CSS as necessary. The associated user preference simply isn't worth the additional code complexity and user interface clutter. This should be an easy bug to resolve; marking it with the Bugzilla keyword accordingly.
I would like to prepare a patch for this bug. Please assign it to me.
