You can find the names of such messages by appending  (or , if the question mark is already used) to the URL (see Help:System messages).

In this case it was a little more complicated because the content is loaded via AJAX, so it was necessary to find the URL of the popup first (done with the network tab of the browsers developer tools).

There you can find the name of the system-message that you have to edit (the one I linked above). Thank you.

By the way, why can I not edit it? Can only bureaucrats do so?
