Description

Go to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ThisIsATestEtcEtcEtc and clic "Create".

An (rather cryptic for an end user) error message appears:

"Error loading data from server: ve-api: No HTML content in response from server. Would you like to retry?"

Reminds me of T39843.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/ThisIsATestEtcEtcEtc?debug=true&veaction=edit does not even finish loading. Meh.

GET  XHR https://www.mediawiki.org/api/rest_v1/page/html/ThisIsATestEtcEtcEtc [HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found 224ms]

And that's a 200 instead of a 404 when the page exists...
