Special: is sort of a virtual namespace - the content doesn't exist in the database. The pages are part of the MediaWiki code - they mostly live in /includes/Special*.php

You will need to be running some of the same extensions Wikipedia runs ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Version) - for example, without the ParserFunctions extension, many templates will not be parsed correctly, leaving code like #if statements throughout the page.

Another silly question: where do all the Special:XXX including the Special:Version pages come from? I do not seem to have them in my local copy.
