Repeating a comment from the parent task:
Possibly. For this to serve the intended purpose, it would need to be viewable and easily findable by:
- Non-admin users of the site, so that they can pester the site admins in charge of the setup
- By people providing MediaWiki support (e.g. people on Freenode MediaWiki-General) who are trying to help a site admin figure out what is wrong with the site
Special:Version is traditionally where this type of information has gone, and it seems like it should at least be an easily findable hyperlink away from Special:Version if it's not included inline.
