Thank you very much for the tip about {{#forminput}}. That worked for
me.
FYI regarding changing MediaWiki messages: You can go to page
Special:AllMessages to see an index off all the MediaWiki messages.
Just use CtrF to search for some of the text from the message you want
to change. Then you can go to the MediaWiki page. First create/save
it and than you can edit it.
