Warn user when a template does not exist with a different message
Closed, ResolvedPublic8 Estimated Story Points

Description

When you insert a template which doesn't exists, you have the visualeditor-dialog-transclusion-no-template-description. This message says that "The "$1" template doesn't yet have a description, but there might be some information on the template's page." It is confusing, because you can think that there is a template. A message like "this template doesn't exists" would be helpful.
