Description

In T260860#6633233, @Gilles wrote:

Also, inviting the user via a window alert to consult errors in the console isn't the normal error display pattern on MediaWiki. Most people don't know what the browser console is. The error should be displayed on the page itself for users who aren't technical to be able to find it easily. It also needs to be localised, the console error messages aren't.
