Oh, and you also have to customise MediaWiki:Youhavenewmessagesmulti if you want the alert for new messages on another wiki to match the one for internal new messages on your wiki.

You know, I've looked around your user pages on your fav wikis and you're not listed as an admin on any of them. I should therefore tell you that you won't be able to make these changes. The entire MediaWiki namespace is only editable by admin, and even admin don't have the power to change that. So, unfortunately, this appears to be just theoretical knowledge for you. But maybe it'll come in handy one day if you get promoted at w:c:ttte.
