I think also that the sidebar should be ordered "Navigation, Search, 
Views, Personal Tools, Toolbox" and that "Views" should be called "This 
Page" or "This Article" or some similar caption.

i.e. optimize for people reading the wiki, not those editing it.

Also, that box at the bottom doesn't seem to be important enough to 
warrant a whole separate box for what is really just a last modified 
date and a license. Can these things move up into the end of the 
sidebar, or the end of the page, or something?

Good work though, Trevor. It makes the OpenID wiki look a lot more 
professional and less like someone just threw up MediaWiki and changed 
the logo. :)
