Help:System messages
From PC Gaming Shelter
A system message is a snippet of plain text (nowiki), wikitext, CSS, or JavaScript that can be used to customize the behavior of MediaWiki and its appearance for each language and locale. MediaWiki uses messages for any user-facing part of the interface, allowing for internationalization and localization of the MediaWiki UI, for both core and extensions. System messages are pages in the MediaWiki namespace, editable bu users in the interface-admin group.
