It seems as though both the Special:Specialpages title name for 'Special:Newimages' and the text at the top of Special:Newimages are both populated by the same MediaWiki:Newimages system message. It would be impossible for someone wanting to add a multi-line message at the top of Special:Newimages without making an absolute mess of Special:Specialpages See Also: http://www.dcdatabaseproject.com/index.php?title=Special:Newimages http://www.dcdatabaseproject.com/Special:Specialpages Example above as "TESTGallery of new files". Could this be broken into 2 messages so that one can be modified without affecting the other?
As far as I understand, this report refers to the title message, which is standard for all special pages - it's the name of the page, in this case, "newimages". Your problem, as I understand it, is wanting to be able to add some message to the top of the page. Would it be acceptable if we were to introduce a new message, "newimages-header", which would be included (as wikitext) at the top of the page above the navigation form? This would be excluded when the special page is transcluded, of course. If I've misunderstood the problem, as I fear I have, please clarify if possible.

A new 'newimages-header' should be fine. :) Thanks!
Isn't it the already existing [[MediaWiki:newimages-summary]]?
(In reply to comment #3) > Isn't it the already existing [[MediaWiki:newimages-summary]]? Quite right. Closing WORKSFORME.
