== Modifying special pages ==
Although special pages are not themselves editable, they generally contain standard text which is modifiable (although only by administrators). To find the right portion of text, append <code>[[mw:Help:Qqx|?uselang=qqx]]</code> to the special page URL, or append <code>&uselang=qqx</code> instead if the URL already contains a <code>?</code>. This will reveal message names in parentheses. Then, go to that name in the [[Help:MediaWiki namespace|MediaWiki namespace]]. For example, {{querylink|Special:BookSources|qs=uselang=qqx|2=Special:BookSources?uselang=qqx}} reveals "(booksources-summary)", so [[MediaWiki:Booksources-summary]] is used on that page. To propose a modification, leave an {{tl|edit fully-protected}} request on the talk page of the relevant MediaWiki page. An administrator will make the change if it seems appropriate.
