Wikipedia:MediaWiki namespace
The MediaWiki namespace is a way to change the interface - that is how the site looks and the words you see outside of the articles.
There are messages in a group called $wgAllMessagesEn in in a file called Language.php. These can be changed using the MediaWiki namespace. For example, the "from Wikipedia" message which you can see at the top of each page is available at MediaWiki:Tagline.
For more help and information about it, please see m:MediaWiki namespace.
Special:Allmessages is a big table showing all of the interface messages. It shows the text before it was changed and the current text, and includes edit links.
If you want to make changes, please discuss them on this talk page first:
