I copied the code from the Sonic News Network, but there's supposed to be a different way to do it that I did try first. Maybe I didn't wait long enough.


 * 1) Go to the MediaWiki:Snow.js page, copy the code from there, then create that same page on your wiki.
 * 2) Go into MediaWiki:Wikia.js on your wiki (and MediaWiki:Common.js to cover those still using the Monobook skin) and add the following:  /* Falling snow effect for the Christmas skin, courtesy of Community Central */   importScriptPage('MediaWiki:Snow.js','c'); 
 * 3) Give it about 15 or 30 minutes to see if that gets the snowflakes falling. (Clear your browser cache.)

If waiting and clearing your web browser cache doesn't work, then you can add the same code I did that I got from the Sonic News Network. You can see it starting about two-thirds of the way down on each of those MediaWiki pages. Starts with "Christmas Snow" in the comment.
