API is making it really hard to do things right. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Special:Code/MediaWiki/108822
Happens on Mediawiki Help namespace as well, and editing source is not allowed for translations.
Just run across this again today when trying to clean up some stuff on mw.org. I handled it in AWB in http://sourceforge.net/p/autowikibrowser/code/10852/
My gut feeling is that the new API error reporting framework has made this better, or if not, then at least easier to fix. But would need testing from someone to confirm.
Yes, it seems fixed now. The error now has code "tpt-target-page" with info taken from that message. Try it in this sandbox for example.
TTO encountered one such error recently (https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T153209#2875803 ) but I don't remember the exact debugging.
That does not appear to have anything at all to do with this task. Is there some reason you think it does?
