You can't edit Special:Allmessages, but you can edit the individual MediaWiki namespace pages. Each entry on Special:Allmessages will detail the page to be changed; simply click on the link to go to it, then edit it as you would any other page.
Incidentally, rebuildMessages.php updates the system messages in the database, replacing them with the ones from the LanguageXX.php files in the installation folder. This is probably not what you want to do if you are changing the database messages in the manner I describe above.
rebuildMessages.php and the other maintenance scripts must be run from the command line. The exact manner of doing this varies very slightly between platforms; you should consult your PHP documentation if you are not sure.

Hi all,
Two questions:
1- Can I edit Especial:Allmessages ? or change some file in somewhere? 2- How I do 'run' the rebuildMessages.php maintenance script to update the system messages from the database?
Thanks a lot, mauro.
