This skin
comes with MediaWiki 1.38and above. Thus you do not have to download it again. However, you still need to follow the other instructions provided.
Vector 2022 is a MediaWiki skin that is the second evolution of the Vector skin. It was developed as part of the Desktop improvements project. It has been bundled in MediaWiki since MediaWiki 1.38 . It is the default skin for various Wikimedia projects.
Vector 2022 differs from most skins in that it does not have its own code base; rather, its code is part of the Vector skin's, and the two are downloaded together.
Version MediaWiki 1.38 of this skin marked official 3rd party support. Note that sites running MediaWiki 1.36 or 1.37 that use Vector 2022 will hit challenges when upgrading to the 1.38 release. See T299104 and Extension:WikimediaMaintenance for more details.
