Just putting it here so everyone can see: some people've been complaining about the "you have new messages" message they can't get rid off. I contacted wikia; here's their reply.

"Hi,

Thanks for contacting Wikia, and reporting this issue. This is because of the sitewidemessage that was sent out for your wiki about chat updates. In monobook, SiteWideMessages tell the user if a message is available on a wiki that they have ever edited on. They can get rid of the message by visiting their talk page on dc.wikia.com and clicking the dismiss message link under the message that should appear at the top of their talk page. If that doesn't work, they can add ?useskin=wikia to their URL while viewing DC and dismiss the popup message that should be in the bottom, left-hand corner.

We're looking at changing this for monobook users so they will only see a SiteWideMessage for a wiki if they are actually viewing that wiki.

Cheers, grunny"

So if anyone has problems, we know what to do.
