Ask them to install X-Wikimedia-Debug extension and to try it on mw1099 so we've an good log?

I highly doubt that the user is that technical to do that. But let me give it a try.

Logs show:

Failed to delete page-move revision: <Error, collected 1 error(s) on the way, no value set>

So...probably abusefilter should not run for deletion on move. And that error being thrown is not appropriate for a permissions error.

I wonder if 71e336981b5db53c9db614c18ee798863c3ded9c made this a bit worse.

So basically an abuse is responsible for this? I can disable that abuse filter but that doesn't seem to be a very robust solution.

Yes, the AbuseFilter needs to be fixed. AbuseFilter is a really powerful tool which is easy to mis-use, and which needs continuous updating, but yeah, ideally the code for moving a page should deal with this situation much more nicely and error neatly. Possibly something to consider when we re-write how that works with page editing?

The user hasn't contacted me for two years now (regarding this issue) and it's very likely that it's resolved. Feel free to reopen it if you get similar reports.
