Re: Is "real name" preference used anywhere?

You can set the LocalSettings.php to show this at the bottom of each page.

PS You can see that in action at www.appropedia.org.

how to show most popular pages?

Every non-special page has a footer "This page has been accessed XY 
times" at the bottom.

Is there an easy way to show/sort the most popular pages out of the 
whole wiki?

Or perhaps there is no generic interface to this, and writing a custom 
script is the only way to do it? Maybe there is one already?

Re: How redirect default page to login window

I am notorious for over complicating things, but you could have it  
check if the user is logged-in, and if not, redirect them to a login  
page, and if they are, let them brows as usual.
You would probably need to do this in php at the level of the skin
something like this at the very top of the skin template should work

The name of the user cookie is different for each install, so you  
would need to find the name and enter it in.

if(!isset($_COOKIE['name_of_user_cookie'])){ // if cookie not set -  
redirect
	header("Location: http://www.example.com/index.php/ 
Special:Userlogin"); // Redirects browser to login page
}

Looks like.

This is the same as with all MediaWiki settings whatsoever.

You can use the built-in #tag parser function for this:

{{#tag:math|{ {{{1}}} \over 2 } }}

Re: How redirect default page to login window

Actually you don't even need to do that.
$wgUser->isLoggedIn(); will tell you if you're logged in.
And $wgOut->redirect( SpecialPage::getTitleFor( 'Special:UserLogin' 
)->fullURL() );
should direct to the login page (Though I may have a function name or 
two wrong.)

Is there a place where these pages are listed/documented?  I can't find 
them on mediawiki.org's Manual pages.

I looked in my wiki's Mediawiki namespace, but none are listed even 
though MediaWiki:Nstab-main exists if I display it.  A lot of folks ask 
about renaming these things and are sent into the code to change the 
display names in code - clearly knowing the names of these pages would 
be much better.

Look at Dynamic Page LIst (DPL) this can do what you want and a heck of a
lot more!

It was running on my site, but I 'upgraded' and have yet to re-install the
DPL - you can check out the call none the less here
