If an administrator wishes to allow non-administrators to edit a MediaWiki page, a method is to place the message on a template, and then transclude the template back onto the MediaWiki page. Another method is to redirect the page to one in a non-MediaWiki namespace.</ref> Non-admins who would like to request a minor change can do so by using the {{tlx|editprotected}} template on the talk page of the MediaWiki page. More substantive changes should be discussed at an appropriate section of the [[Wikipedia:Village pump]]; an edit request should then be made if there is [[WP:Consensus|consensus]] for the change.
Changes that can benefit other wiki sites and are not specific to Wikipedia can be submitted to [[translatewiki.net]] (also known as TWN, formerly known as BetaWiki). See [[translatewiki:Translating:MediaWiki]]. Since English is the original language of the messages, changes to them cannot be directly edited in translatewiki.net, and have to be discussed in the [[translatewiki:Support|support page there]]. wokspece IOPV closser
MediaWiki pages can not and should not have documentation on the page itself for several reasons: among other things <noinclude> tags usually do not function in this namespace and the amount of data in MediaWiki space needs to be kept low for performance reasons. Instead, a description of the message can be put at the top of the talk page. A template {{tl|interface explanation}} is available for this. Pages using this template can be found in [[:Category:MediaWiki messages with interface explanation]].
Some messages have old documentation available by setting the 'language' to <kbd>qqq</kbd>. For instance, [[MediaWiki:Login]] has old, and somewhat incorrect, documentation at [[MediaWiki:Login/qqq]]. Don't update the /qqq messages, instead update the top of the talk
The message names for a particular interface element can be found using the "Add a toolbox link to reload the current page with the system message names exposed" Advanced Gadget in the [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets|Special:Preferences]]. Once enabled a "message names" item appears in the tool box, when clicked the names of all items are
